sophie anne edwards works on and off the page, at her desk, and in the bush. Her debut collection of visual and text-based poetry, Conversations with the Kagawong River (Talonbooks) was recommended by CBC as an October ‘must read’, and made both CBC’s and Quill & Quire‘s most anticipated fall release lists. She has been longlisted for the 2021 CBC poetry prize, shortlisted for Arc Poetry Magazine‘s 2019 Poem of the Year, and recently long-listed for Omnidawn’s 1st/2nd book prize. An experimental novel, A Mouth of Vowels, is forthcoming with 1366, an imprint of Guernica Editions. She lives on Mnidoo Mnising/Manitoulin Island.
