Description

Winner of the John Hirsch Award for Most Promising Writer (Manitoba Writing and Publishing Awards).
An unflinching look at modern love. A strong new voice in Canadian ­literature, Melissa Steele follows the likes of David Bergen and Miriam Toews as a John Hirsch Most Promising Writer.
"Steele has an ear for the coded language of families."
-The National Post
"The blend of sex and family saga gives a sharp edge to these family-oriented stories. . . . it can also be cathartic and affirming, as well as hot and ­bothered."
-The Vancouver Sun
