My Life in Pictures (Paperback)

The prose poems of "My Life in Pictures" are about the life and times of Canadian poet and novelist, Christian McPherson. He runs his own narrative through a film projector and what illuminates onto the page is a poignant coming of age story, along with the harrowing trails of dealing with a mentally ill father, relationships won and lost, and a lifetime search to find meaning in the world. McPherson infuses his story with his love of cinema, beginning at his conception and moving one film at a time to his present middle age. "My Life in Pictures" is a book best read in dim lighting with a bag of popcorn.
