A CBC BOOKS AND QUILL & QUIRE ANTICIPATED FALL BOOK

A LAMBDA LITERARY MOST ANTICIPATED LGBTQIA+ TITLE

Linked short stories about families, nascent queers, and self-deluded utopians explore the moral ordinary strangeness in their characters' overlapping lives.

A woman impersonates a nun online, with unexpected consequences. In a rapidly changing neighborhood, tensions escalate around two events planned for the same day. The barista girlfriend of a tech billionaire survives a zombie apocalypse only to face spending her life with the paranoid super-rich. From a university campus to an underground bunker, a commune in the woods to Toronto and back again, the linked stories in Householders move effortlessly between the commonplace and the fantastic. In deft and exacting narratives about difficult children and thorny friendships, hopeful revolutionaries and self-deluded utopians, nascent queers, sincere frauds, and families of all kinds, Kate Cayley mines the moral hazards inherent in the ways we try to save each other and ourselves.
