Title
Editing “Old Ladies”: Margaret Avison, P.K. Page, Miriam Waddington, Suzanne Rosenberg, and Jane Jacobs
Abstract
The author, a former Managing Editor of Oxford University Press Canada, recounts his professional relationships with P.K. Page (1916-2010) and Miriam Waddington (1917-2004), both part of the Montreal poetry modernist movement in the 1940s and 1950s, and with Suzanne Rosenberg (1915-1988), who spent part of her childhood in Montreal before her mother decided to return to Russia with her family, in 1931, to help make a Communist utopia, and which Resenberg recounted in her 1988 memoir titled A Soviet Odyssey, detailing the horrific account of her life in a totalitarian state.
