Poet P.K. Page, a stalwart of Malahat Review and other small magazines, dead at 93

Very sorry to learn that poet P.K. Page, a National Magazine Award winner and the grand dame of Canadian poetry, has died at the age of 93, in Victoria. As CBC News reports   said, Page was considered one of Canada's most esteemed writers and a champion of small-scale publishing. Page was born in England and moved to Red Deer, Alberta in 1919, moving frequently with her father, who was a soldier.
