<p><b>Now, for the first time, a blistering book of short fiction from one of Canada&#8217;s most loved novelists. </b></p><p>In <i>Skin</i>, Catherine Bush plunges into the vortex of all that shapes us. Summoning relationships between the human and more-than-human, she explores a world where touch and intimacy are both desirable and fraught. </p><p>Ranging from the realistic to the speculative, Bush&#8217;s stories tackle the condition of our restless, unruly world amidst the tumult of viruses, climate change, and ecological crises. Here, she brings to life unusual and perplexing intimacies: a man falls in love with the wind; a substitute teacher&#8217;s behaviour with a student brings unforeseen risks; a woman becomes fixated on offering foot washes to strangers. </p><p>Bold, vital, and unmistakably of the moment, <i>Skin</i> gives a charged and animating voice to the question of how we face the world and how, in the process, we discover tenderness and allow ourselves to be transformed. </p>
