A Globe 100 Best Book of 2025
Finalist for the Atwood Gibson Writers' Trust Fiction Prize
The first collection of short stories from award-winning author Tim Bowling, exploring childhood, work, and aging.
Set on the west coast of British Columbia and in Edmonton, the fifteen stories in this collection focus on moments of transformation: between parents and their children, between men and women, between humans and the natural world. In this collection that’s every bit as thoughtful and masterful as his past work, Tim Bowling explores the passing of time and the (sometimes desperate) desire for meaning to return, with depth and flashes of humour.
