“We jimmied the radio”: Gillian Jerome, Brad Cran and the Lyric in Public
Kevin McNeilly
Kevin McNeilly posits Gillian Jerome and Brad Cran, in their collaborative work and in their individual poetry, in dialogue with a lyric tradition. The lyric in Jerome’s and Cran’s poetry, though, foregrounds its public audience, both aurally and politically, and it does so with awareness of how living in Vancouver—at once the site of Canada’s wealthiest and most impoverished postal codes—informs a particularly fraught poetic-public dynamic.
