From a white anthropologist who discovers kinship in his African tribal bride, to a jilted Canadian journalist in Iran, enticed by Islamic fundamentalism; from the racist son of a diplomat in Singapore taught a brutal lesson in identity, to a member of a Toronto literary collective attracted to the eloquent nature of a San Salvadoran torture victim, Kenneth J. Harvey lures the reader into the intriguing lives of characters rarely depicted in Canadian fiction. In this, his seventh book, Harvey fearlessly explores the issues of culture displacement, sexual politics, and individualism.
Four extraordinary stories by the novelist and poet —the author of Directions For An Opened Body, The Hole That Must Be Filled and Brud. What the Globe and Mail has called his “wise, angry, darkly inventive vision…” has found new landscapes, darkest Africa, Tehran, the alleys of Singapore and Toronto, and new perplexing landscapes of the heart. Compelling stories, a compelling prose.
