The White Collar Book: poetry and prose of Canadian business life

Unlike most countries, Canada was a nation founded by clerks and created on paper by professionals. We spend an enormous portion of our lives in offices, classrooms, examining rooms, work space cubicles, and in front of computer terminals, but rarely do we celebrate or even examine that world in our literature. In this breakthrough anthology, Canadian writers take up the challenge of imagining themselves as they really are hard at work in the white collar world, forging ahead in their professions, surviving the perils of office politics, and offering profound insights into the reality of their lives.
