Avi Boxer was a Montreal East-end poet who flourished during the 1950’s literary foment alongside A.M. Klein, F.R. Scott, Louis Dudek, Irving Layton and Leonard Cohen.
An email came to me at work about an incredible collection of photos, The Avi Boxer Archives, made available through Véhicule Press. The picture above is Al Purdy, Margaret Atwood, and Avi himself. Visit the site for more.

I was staying with a friend in Ottawa a couple years ago. He had to work the morning I was leaving, so I found a picture of him and his (then) girlfriend and made this while I was waiting for the Greyhound.
