Description:
<p><b>Shortlisted for the Cover Design Award at the 2016 Alberta Book Publishing Awards!</b><br></p><p>After the accidental death of a teenaged friend, the Lansing family has split along fault lines previously hidden under a patina of suburban banality. Every family has secrets, but for the Lansings those secrets end up propelling them in different directions away from their border town to foreign shores and to prison.</p><p>Told in thirty-three flash fiction narratives, <em>Border Markers</em> is fractured like the psyches of its characters, all keen edges and tough language. It’s a slice of prairie noir that straddles the line between magical and gritty realism. Jenny Ferguson’s debut is a compelling collection of commonplace tragedies and surprising insights.</p> <p><b>Shortlisted for the Cover Design Award at the 2016 Alberta Book Publishing Awards!</b><br></p><p>After the accidental death of a teenaged friend, the Lansing family has split along fault lines previously hidden under a patina of suburban banality.
