Toronto poet Anne Michaels has been nominated for two 2019 Vine Awards, each worth $10,000. Michaels was nominated in two categories: nonfiction for her book “Infinite Gradation,” published by Exile Editions, and for poetry for her book “All We Saw,” published by McClelland & Stewart. In total, the Vine Awards are handed out in five categories: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, history and children’s/young adult. The Vine Awards build on the Canadian Jewish Book Awards founded in 1988 and are given out each year. Winners will be announced at a gala luncheon in Toronto on Oct. 23.
