David' poetry has appeared in over 100 periodicals in England, Australia, Germany, Austria and the US. He lives in a log home near Ottawa.

Reviews

"Groulx's volume is full of yearnings, pain, and frustration; the writing is honest, lucid, and relentless in its efforts to understand the injustices heaped upon an unsuspecting but thriving culture." - Prairie Fire Review of Books "There is tenderness in Groulx; there is beauty alongside difficulty. But he has thunderbolts to throw ? to illuminate consciousness and rock consciences ? and he throws them, to overthrow complacency." - The Chronicle Herald "This collection of poetry is a passionate snapshot of poignant aspects of life on the rez depicted in simple scenes that are propelled forward with a sparse economy of language. It is little wonder that Groulx has won awards for his poetry and it has appeared globally in over one hundred periodicals." - Canadian Literature
