Pinching Zwieback

Autor Mitch Toews
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 noi 2023
Made-up Stories from the Darp focuses on recurrent, related characters with a common reality: small town Mennonite life. It's socially engaged autofiction based heavily on the author's own background and experiences. The loosely linked stories read, "almost like a novel", with characters whose lives are given form by the past but undergo change as the world reshapes beliefs and circumstances. Author Mitchell Toews', who grew up in his parents' Mennonite bakery in Steinbach Manitoba, employs a gritty style containing psychological depth. Toews' stories reveal the truth behind the fiction. This collection is a blend of memory, fable, and trauma that examines profound moments in which the conflict might be subtle or camouflaged but the consequences are real. A Keatsian, "mansion of many apartments", the stories combine to offer a broad narrative on how the people once known as the quiet in the land have evolved, and are evolving.
