The Ledger is a foundational book-length poem in the Field Notes series that Canada's top literary bullshitter has now declared Completed. Be that as it may, The Ledger has been in continuous demand since its first publication in 1972.

If you begin these pages wondering what makes them poetry, feel free to shuck the term. Robert Kroetsch's poetry generously offers a reader enough space to become a writer.
