Literary Montreal is the setting of two stories spun around an alpha poseur, George. Picking up from the Gothic shadows of Albert Fine in Holy Fools (Guernica, 2014), Ackerman follows the lives of an Ontario farm family marked by a bloody incident they struggle to understand. Four interlocking stories plumb the secrets of one man's sister, ex-wife, friend and mother. Sardonic and often funny, these tales follow the byways of aspiration and self-deception, casting light on all.Essential ProseShort stories, CanadianWomenShort stories, Canadian.Women.823/.914823.914Ackerman Marianne1246021MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910156175503321Mankind & Other Stories of Women2889325UNINA
