Originally appearing between 1968 and 1983, and representing almost the entire arc of Nichol's writing career, \u003ci\u003eNights on Prose Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e is by turns heartbreaking, playful, and evocative. While Nichol's poetry is widely studied, researched and taught, his novels have remained out of print and are overdue for a new edition. Nichol's curiosity and craft, his exploration and exuberance, his lyricism and adventurousness are all on exhibit here.
