Description: Guwayu, For All Times is a collection of First Nations poems commissioned by Red Room Poetry over the past 16 years, and is a radical literary intervention for its breadth of representation, temporal depth and diversity of language.

Journey through a range of poetic forms from lyric, confessional, protest, narrative and song, showcasing new voices and established poets.
