Another Order gathers the dynamic and previously inaccessible works of Judith Copithorne, the boundary-pushing writer, artist, community worker, and outspoken feminist who has been a key figure in Vancouver's literary scene since the 1960s. Including poetry, fiction, visual art, comics, and life writing, Another Order captures Copithorne's "embodied approach to text" and her tireless experiments with media - from typewriters and pens to computer software - in texts that engage issues of gender, sexuality, desire, subjectivity, spirituality, and revolution. Edited and introduced by Eric Schmaltz, this volume affirms Judith Copithorne's position among the leading avant-garde poets and artists of her time.
