| | Steveston: Daphne Marlatt and Robert Minden |
 | | In addition, Marlatt and Minden have rethought their decision to interleave poems and photos, and have, instead, created two separate but connected stories — poetry and pictures that evoke their own rhythms and then speak to each other of their connections. |
 | | As Marlatt recalls, "There was something in Steveston which drew us, over and over again, and which our work attempted to enunciate — something under the backwater quiet, the river hum of comings and goings, the traffic of work, that was ‘shouting’ at us to tell it." |
 | | Daphne Marlatt, who has spent most of her life living and writing on the West Coast, has played an important part in creating an alternative poetic line. |
