Description

Here is a collection of interconnected short stories that trails the inhabitants of a colonial mansion on Circular Road in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, over a span of 100 years. Aristocrats, hippies, housemaids, an all-girl rock band, a politician, a theologian, a biologist, a ballerina, a crow—over the decades, the house has a way of bending time for its varied occupiers, making readers question how our histories shape us and whether we can ever truly escape, or make peace with, the ghosts of the past.
