Jordan Abel is a Nisga'a writer residing in Vancouver. His first book, The Place of Scraps, was published by Talonbooks in 2013. Abel's conceptual writing engages with the representation of Indigenous peoples in Anthropology through the technique of erasure. He has been described as “a master carver of the page” who passes the work of sculpture along to the reader “who reads, and rereads, in three dimensions.” Abel’s chapbooks have been published by JackPine Press and Above/Ground Press, and his work has appeared in numerous periodicals, including Grain, ARC, and Canadian Literature. Abel is an editor for Poetry Is Dead magazine.
