Steven Heighton is a Canadian novelist, short story writer and poet. He is the author of fifteen books. His most recent book, the poetry collection -The Waking Comes Late, was published in 2016. His fiction and poetry have been translated into ten languages and have been nominated for many awards. He has been a writer in residence for many programs. Heighton is also a fiction reviewer for the New York Times Book Review.

“Steven Heighton's The Waking Comes Late is a journey deepening as we read. He locates the complexities of the personal in a wide range of social issues, while playing masterfully with language, form and tone. His stunning political poems never descend to pedantry or the prosaic. A mature work: smart, moving, inventive, original.”
