- Book Synopsis
- Winner of the 2016 Thomas Raddall Atlantic Fiction Award at the East Coast Literary Awards! Shortlisted for the Book Design Award at the 2016 Alberta Book Publishing Awards! Shortlisted for the 2015 New Brunswick Book Awards!In this collection of stories, author and filmmaker R. W. Gray (Crisp) finds the place where the beautiful, the strange, and the surreal all meet-sometimes meshing harmoniously, sometimes colliding with terrible violence, launching his characters into a redefined reality.A lovestruck man discovers the secret editing room where his girlfriend erases all her flaws; a massage artist finds that she has a gift, but is uncertain of the price; a beautiful man sets out to be done with beauty; and a gay couple meets what appear to be younger versions of themselves, learning that history can indeed repeat itself.
