Between the Lakes cont. by Ben Robinson
Between the Lakes cont. by Ben Robinson
Ben Robinson returns to The Blasted Tree with a long poem that documents his attempt to drive the boundary of the Between the Lakes Treaty 1792 that covers present-day Hamilton. This portion of Between the Lakes continues a poetic mapping begun in a previous chapbook (published by above/ground press in 2023) and proceeds in long, survey-like lines. A limited edition of fifty 4.25” x 5.5” chapbooks have been produced by The Blasted Tree, each staple-bound into cardstock covers with a metallic red flyleaf.

In an era dominated by new forms of digital media, The Blasted Tree continues to value the art of book- and print ephemera-making. We think there’s something special about the feeling of holding a literary text in physical form, so we’ve committed to producing high-quality print editions of groundbreaking Canadian and international writing and visual art. Most of The Blasted Tree’s content is available for free on our website; our hope is that if you enjoy what you encounter online you might purchase a copy in print, or even subscribe and receive one of everything we produce in a year. What better way to support an independent press than by buying an artfully crafted print publication or subscription!?
