Selected List of Publications
- Next to Nothing. Wolsak & Wynn, 2009. ISBN: 978-1-894987-38-7
- Next to Nothing is composed of poetry that is raw with honesty, written in a voice that asks for no sympathy and gives no quarter. As Atlantic poet Christina McRae's debut collection, Next to Nothing marks the emergence of a strong regional voice that captures the darker edge of the Maritimes while writing about universal themes.
