The Least You Can Do Is Be Magnificent: Selected and New Writings, 1983—2016 is a retrospective celebration of the work of Steve Venright, Canada's foremost surrealist. For over thirty years, in the tradition of Lautrï¿½amont, Breton, and Michaux, Steve Venright has devoted himself to the liberation of the imagination. His writing is preoccupied with the journey into and across 'domains of existence vivid and compelling beyond even this miraculous reality we call the world.' Venright's dream visions of southwestern Ontario's deliriomantic landscapes are populated by his signature puns, portmanteaus, neologisms, and spoonerisms. Bibliographic notes included.
