Great Regulars: Some readers may be surprised, on opening

The Breakwater Book of Contemporary Newfoundland Poetry, to find only 11 poets included. Newfoundland may be one of the smaller provinces; still, surely there are more than 11 poets writing there?

The editors, Mark Callanan and James Langer, surely have their reasons for choosing barely enough writers to make up a soccer team.
