Between Tears and Laughter by Alden Nowlan

Alden Nowlan (1933-83) is Canadas most popular modern poet, a figure comparable in the publics affections to Stevie Smith or Betjeman in Britain.
Born in the Nova Scotia backwoods, Alden Nowlan left school at 12 and worked in a sawmill before becoming a local newspaper reporter. His early poems bear witness to the harshness and hypocrisy of lives brutalised by poverty and ignorance in a remote Canadian backwater.
