Book Review: 'Coyote Snow' by Laurie Lynn Muirhead
Laurie Lynn Muirhead's poetry collection, Coyote Snow, is a richly detailed and emotional work that showcases her love for North Central Saskatchewan.
Muirhead's powerful descriptions bring the Canadian prairie landscape to life, making readers appreciate the region as much as she does.
However, the collection has been noted to ignore key perspectives on the Canadian prairie landscape.
Seasonal Cycle
The poems in Coyote Snow describe the seasonal cycle of Muirhead's life on a North-Central Saskatchewan ranch, flowing together like a story.
- Winter's harshness
- Summer relief
- Autumn anxiety
- A more favourable presentation of winter and its blessings
“only two seasons: winter, and getting ready for winter”
Muirhead skillfully connects nature to her personal life, particularly her marriage.
