<p>"Roadkill stuffed and presented as art, an OB/GYN appointment gone horribly wrong, and government spies with a weakness for salmon bagels and Timmy Ho’s. Tender, satirical, and occasionally absurd, Barb Howard’s new story collection <i>Western Taxidermy</i> is a perfect introduction to one of Western Canada’s most high-spirited literary voices.</p><p>In these sixteen stories, Howard effortlessly balances wry social commentary and prairie gothic, pairing humans and animals in clever and unexpected ways.</p><p><br>Praise for <i>Western Taxidermy</i><br><br>"Bizarre, disturbing, sad, hilarious and haunting. Howard's stories stir the reader's imagination."<br>~ <i>The Prairie Journal</i><br><br>"Not only would I recommend reading it, I would recommend re-reading it not long after."<br>~ <i>Herizons</i><br><br>"Grab it for a satisfying, thoughtful tease on your palate before we tumble headlong into snow season."<br>~ Bess Lovec, <i>Billings Gazette</i></p>
