Description:
<p> Carol Bruneau, author of six acclaimed works of fiction (most recently, <i>These Good Hands</i>), brings her finely honed voice to 12 new stories about shifting concepts of Nova Scotian identity. </p><p>In "The Race," a war bride?s remarkable life trajectory unfolds as she competes in an international swim marathon in the Northwest Arm. Strain erupts between a Haligonian couple in "Burning Times," while they struggle to keep track of one another, both physically and emotionally, on an Italian vacation. In "Polio Beach," cousins gather oceanside over the will of a recently deceased aunt who once saved one of them from drowning. </p><p>Writing with empathy, humour, and linguistic precision, Bruneau follows characters who find themselves connected to Nova Scotia by birth, through attempts at escape and new beginnings, or as a temporary resting place, always carrying with them their own idiosyncratic and complex definitions of "home." </p>
