About This Item
Vancouver, BC: Talonbooks, 2019. Soft cover. As New. INSCRIBED BY BILL RICHARDSON on title page; As New; Eight linked stories, all set around Christmastime in Vancouver's West End neighbourhood, explore the seasonal tug-of-war between expectation and disappointment. These tales give shelter to characters from various walks of life whose experience of transcendence leaves them more alienated than consoled. This book captures West End community vanishing under pressure from development and skyrocketing real-estate prices. As arch as they are elegiac, as funny as they are melancholy, these stories honour a cherished period in the history of the West End.
