    Ethical Aspects of Animal Husbandry
    by Craig Terlson

    A collection of short stories where the humour runs dark and the slipstream bubbles up.

     

    ...imagine if Raymond Carver called up George Saunders and Joe Lansdale, and they all went drinking with Neil Gaiman.

    “… it's clear that Terlson is way ahead of the curve in terms of crafting an engaging premise that reaches for elevated territory and reinvents enduring archetypes of action and suspense.”  J. Schoenfelder


    "Sometimes brutal, often demanding and always complex, this novel will repay the reader who likes their assumptions challenged and is happy to walk away from a book with minor questions unanswered but the big ones definitely dealt with! It’s likely to satisfy those who enjoy Hammet and/or Philip K Dick and who like their fiction very noir indeed."   Kay Sexton

     

    "I love a novel that you can't put down, and this is one of them."  L. Cihlar

Folking Summer

DateTuesday, August 3, 2010 at 05:54PM

Missed out on the Winnipeg Folk Fest this year (had a pretty good excuse, my daughter got married) - but I am off to that other great prairie fest in Regina.

This year's line up is full of greatness, as usual, but the highlight for me will be John Prine. I've never seen him live, and I heard he can be hit and miss (as in sober or not).

I'm taking some good reading along for the ride, and when things get quiet, slow, or John starts slurring. After much resistance, I picked up The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Well, not that much resistance, but I am kind of wary of books that go viral. So far, nothing has struck me - though, I am early in the book. But I have to say that I leaned in when they started describing the titular character.

Some other quite amazing news is in the wings. But I am not saying anything just yet.

Off to folk it up.
