Jacket #28, featuring a special George Bowering tribute, and three new poems. This summer, George read the second poem, "Q&A," to sixty-odd people in Pulpfiction's front room. There is a great Chris Clarke photograph of George squinting at his typescript permanently installed at the head of the Poetry & Drama section.

From "Q&A":

"What’s the score?

All I can tell you, little fish,
is that you are not winning. Your chance of winning
is zero. Follow your heart if you like­­
it’s not going anywhere. The game, if that’s
what it is, is as good as over. You don’t want
to know the score."
