Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. Anger I get but anger with no real explanation or direction I don't understand. Normally I love short stories and while the author's prose is engaging, her tales seem rather pointless. Also, a pretty good indicator is how long do I take to read something - I started this month's ago and am just wrapping it up now. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
"Nova Scotia-themed short story collection by award-winning author of Purple for Sky Carol Bruneau, author of six acclaimed works of fiction (most recently, These Good Hands), brings her finely honed voice to 12 new stories about shifting concepts of Nova Scotian identity. 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.'"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

She approaches the narratives on a tangent, rather than just tell us who and where, but then moments of pure clarity. I gave up 2.5 stories from the end of the book.
All of the stories are supposed to be linked by NS. First is an Irish Great war bride of 10 years; then nun (?) from Lagos in Halifax, then Haligonian couple in Florence, and another in Berlin. Tenuous. ( )
