The Dying Poem

On the afternoon that two tonnes of explosives are set to dismember Toronto's Metropolitan Library, poet Henry Black hides in his favourite wing; when his mangled body is uncovered, there's a book lodged in his chest. Jay Post, a hapless filmmaker, is hired to chronicle the life, death and writings of the poet. Armed only with poems and the memories of two of Henry's sometimes lovers, Jay sets out to unravel the threads of Henry's labyrinthine, suicide-obsessed mind.
