A new poetry collection by a young and talented Canadian poet, Chad Campbell, finalist for the 2013 Malahat Long Poem Prize Beginning with the arrival of the Campbell clan in Canada in 1827--"pale scot farmers fording the river, / seated backwards in refusal"--Laws & Locks tracks the history of one family's struggle with depression, madness, and mental illness.
