Hi there. My name is Adam Getty. I'm a poet living in Hamilton, Canada. My main work is Reconciliation, published with Nightwood Editions in 2003. I received the Gerald Lampert Memorial Award and a Hamilton Literary Award, as well as being shortlisted for Ontario's Trillium Award for Poetry. Earlier this year I published Lyric and Elegy, a chapbook of newer poems with Biblioasis Editions. I wanted to open a my space page so people that wanted to contact me could. I plan to include a couple of poems here and use the blog for recording general ruminations on things I've recently read. To paraphrase the essayist Michel de Montaigne, you would be unreasonable to read it. But you're more than welcome.
