In Divers Tones
$19.95
In Divers Tones by Charles G. D. Roberts is one of the earliest collections by a poet widely regarded as a founder of modern Canadian literature. First published in 1886, the volume helped establish Roberts as a leading voice among the group later known as the Confederation Poets.
The poems reflect Roberts’s deep engagement with the natural world, drawing inspiration from the landscapes of eastern Canada. Through lyrical language and carefully crafted imagery, the collection explores themes of nature, reflection, and the rhythms of everyday life. Roberts’s work balances classical poetic structure with vivid descriptions of forests, rivers, and changing seasons.
In Divers Tones offers readers an early glimpse of Roberts’s literary vision and his influence on the development of Canadian poetry.
