Shortlisted for the Saskatchewan Book Award (Poetry Book) 2023 Shortlisted for the Saskatchewan Book Award (City of Saskatoon) 2023 Shortlisted for the Derek Walcott Prize for Poetry 2022 Shortlisted for the Pat Lowther Memorial Award 2022 Field Requiem bears witness to the violence inherent in the shift to industrialised farming in prairie Canada.
Sheri Benning's poems chart the ways in which a way of life collapses, the world of the family farm, even as the speaker suffers, too. The first poem in the collection, 'Winter Sleep', is a fever dream: the borders between past and present, between the unconscious and the real, break down.
The poem reckons with the devastating social and environmental impacts of the agribusiness industry. The long elegy, 'Let Them Rest', takes its cue from the Dies Irae and the Latin liturgy of the Requiem mass to mourn Saskatchewan's many ruined farmsteads and razed communities.
Throughout, the poems trace the still luminous contours of love – for family, for the land – in rendering the horrors of loss. The incantatory voice rises from dream into dark vision. The book also includes lyric poems that give voice to the affective consequences of loss brought on by climate change and factory farming and renew a sense of locality in the teeth of corporate farming practices.
Benning has worked with her sister Heather Benning, who constructs large-scale, site specific installations which explore and extend these themes.
