Description
Winnipeg is a place of extremes. Winters are fierce and relentless. Summers are unbearbly hot. It has been both the murder and auto theft capital of Canada and the Slurpee capital of the world. It is a place that exerts an influence, that marks and changes its inhabitants. This anthology features writers who have all lived in Winnipeg for a time and been inspired, horrified, changed by that experience. The stories here capture a tone of history, dread, violence, weirdness, and sometimes even whimsy; a tone that only Winnipeg exudes.
About the authors
By turning to his own unconventional brand of frightening fiction, Keith Cadieux dares to explore and expose deep-rooted human fears and anxieties that are normally left unexamined. He grew up in Winnipeg and holds a Master's degree in English from the University of Manitoba. "Gaze" is his first novella.
