This Time, That Place: ReSet

Autor Clark Blaise
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 noi 2022
"Blaise is probably the greatest living Canadian writer most Canadians have never heard of."?Quill & Quire
?If you want to understand something about what life was like in the restless, peripatetic, striving, anxiety-ridden, shimmer cultural soup of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries," writes Margaret Atwood, "read the stories of Clark Blaise." This Time, That Place draws together twenty-four stories that span the entirety of Blaise's career, including one never previously published. Moving swiftly across place and time, through and between languages?from Florida's Confederate swamps, to working-class Pittsburgh, to Montreal and abroad?they demonstrate Blaise's profound mastery of the short story and reveal the range of his lifelong preoccupation with identity as fallacy, fable, and dream.
This Time, That Place: Selected Stories confirms Clark Blaise as one of the best and most enduring masters of the form?on either side of our shared borders.
