Product Description

The subject of spontaneous human combustion has long fascinated me, as had magic and the supernatural. I was also reading about out of body and near-death experiences. When I was about six or seven, I met a young girl aged about twelve who had a large pet crow. In a coal-blackened back shed, she had the crow do tricks and she performed rudimentary magic, including lighting a candle and passing her hand through the flame. I never saw this girl again. At some point, all of these elements came together and I sat down to write To Whom it May Concern.

About the Author

Canadian poet, performer, and arts reviewer Bob MacKenzie has been writing poetry, prose fiction, arts criticism, and songs since 1965. Reflection, his first book of poetry, was published in 1965. He has published poetry in hundreds of newspapers, magazines, journals and anthologies in Canada, The United States, and worldwide; has, with noted Canadian printmaker G. Brender a Brandis, published five prints of his poems as signed and numbered limited edition prints and The Little Song, a signed and numbered limited edition book; has published/broadcast arts commentary in local, regional, and national Canadian media; and has, with the performance group Poem de Terre, had seven releases of spoken word and songs, including War & Love (2006). He is the only Canadian poet (one of only two in North America) for whom an art gallery has devoted an entire visual-arts exhibition to his work and possibly the only poet to have artist-versions of his poetry in Canada Council's National Art Bank and has won numerous awards for poetry, prose, and scripts, including a prestigious Ontario Arts Council Grant.
