[front list] Belinda’s Rings by Corinna Chong
A heartfelt and quirky look at growing up as a biracial child in 1990s Calgary, Alberta. Half-Asian teenager Grace (but she’d prefer it if you called her “Gray” instead) is not a perfect supermom-inthe-making like her older sister Jessica, and would rather become a marine biologist than a mother—although she does understand how to take care of her anomalous kid brother Squid better than anyone else in her family. When her mother Belinda abruptly runs out on her family and flies across the Atlantic in order to study crop circles in the English countryside, Grace is left alone to puzzle out her life, the world, and her unique place within it. With a warmth and a boisterous sense of humour reminiscent of Miriam Toews’ A Complicated Kindness and Peter Hedges’ What’s Eating Gilbert Grape? author Corinna Chong introduces us to two lovable and thoroughly original female characters: persnickety, precocious Grace, and her impractical, impulsive mother Belinda—very different women who nevertheless persistently circle back into each other’s hearts. [BIO] Calgary-born Corinna Chong is a writer, editor, and graphic designer based out of Kelowna, B.C. Her writing has appeared in Grain, NoD, Echolocation, and The Malahat Review. She currently teaches English Literature at Okanagan College and edits Ryga: A Journal of Provocations.

Chong’s voice is fresh and soulful.” —Eden Robinson, author of Monkey Beach and Blood Sports “Belinda’s Rings is about childhood and adolescence and sisters and mothers and piano lessons, but it’s also about UFOs and mysterious squids and stunningly beautiful crop circles near Stonehenge. The writing has a mesmerising grace and an Atwoodian fascination with science and swirling fractals and deep sea divers and puzzling family bonds. Belinda’s Rings is a vital vibrant gem.” —Mark Anthony Jarman, author of 19 Knives and My White Planet
[front list] Seldom Seen Road by Jenna Butler
An exploration of Prairie women and the quiet strength that has sustained them through history.
Digital Media
Seldom Seen Road is a collection of sharply observed and understated poems about the land and its people, specifically those who have made it grow. Bare bones, full of wit, insight, and fine imagery, they make up a book carefully constructed around a striking vision of the Prairies and its slowly disappearing history. Butler illuminates an oft-hidden world of strong women spanning two centuries, focusing the most powerful sequence of the book, “Lepidopterists”, on them.
These poems find their place in a tradition of prairie poetry that owes much to the work of such poets as John Newlove, Robert Kroetsch, and others. Combining an exacting attention to detail with organic sensibilities, Seldom Seen Road will grow on you. [BIO] Jenna Butler was born in Norwich, England and lives in Edmonton, Alberta. She runs her own poetry house, Rubicon Press, and teaches at Grant MacEwan University in Edmonton, possessing advanced degrees in Arts, Education and Poetry. This is Butler’s third book of poetry, following Aphelion (NeWest) and Wells (U of A).

Jenna Butler’s fine eye and ear are the best of companions.” —Barbara Langhorst, author of Restless White Fields “Jenna Butler brings a fresh set of eyes and a startling lyric language to these poems, a wonderful re-imagining of these prairies and of the people whose stories are part of our history. One of her narrators declares ‘always/out here I know where I stand’ and Butler’s poems ring with the same conviction.” —Glen Sorestad, author of Leaving Holds Me Here
[front list] Open Pit
by Marguerite Pigeon
El Salvador: 2005:
Digital Media
On the eve of NorthOre’s opening of a new mining operation, a group of Canadian human-rights activists are taken hostage by a former revolutionary fighter who demands that the company stop production at the open-pit gold mine and allow his family’s remains to be exhumed. The mine’s Canadian owner, however, decides on a combined police and security force action to end the standoff. For most of the hostages, this is the first time anything like this has ever happened to them. For Danielle Byrd, the situation is all too familiar, as she was there twenty years previously as an embedded journalist with a guerrilla faction during the country’s civil war. Now, her daughter Aida must herself travel to the scarred landscape and choose her allies carefully if she wants to see her mother alive once more. Marguerite Pigeon’s first novel is a gripping and tense political thriller as well as a genre-busting literary work, exploring a clash between two cultures and the true cost of doing business in the era of globalization. With character-driven action and imagery reminiscent of Georges Arnaud’s The Wages of Fear and a complex plot that recalls John Le Carré’s The Constant Gardener, Open Pit explores the legacy of violent conflict in a complex, shifting present.

[front list] The Paradise Engine by Rebecca Campbell
A rollicking saga of two worlds colliding and collapsing to the sounds of Vaudeville. While working to restore an historic theatre in a seedy part of the city, a graduate student named Anthea searches to find her best friend, lost to the rhetoric of an itinerant preacher and street mystic. Almost a century earlier, Liam, a tenth-rate tenor, visits the same theatre while eking out a career on the dying Vaudeville circuits of the day. In both eras, an apocalyptic strain of utopian mysticism threatens their existence: Anthea contends with a nascent New Age movement in the heart of the city while Liam encounters a radical theosophical commune in the deep country along the coast of British Columbia, who appear to be building ... something. The Paradise Engine unfolds across a colourful backdrop of labour organizers, immaculately-attired cultists, ambitious socialites, teenage lovers, basement offices and innumerable coffee shops. Its cast of characters and historical setting recalls Robertson Davies’ Fifth Business or Thomas Pynchon’s Against the Day, while its approach to memory and community is reminiscent of The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami. [BIO] Rebecca Campbell has had fiction and poetry published in Grain, Geist, The Fiddlehead, TickleAce and Prairie Fire. She has received a Masters in English at UBC and is currently working on her PhD. at the University of Western Ontario. Originally from Duncan, BC in the Cowichan valley, Rebecca now lives in London, Ontario.

[front center] list] The Devil’s Breath [media The Story of the Hillcrest Mine Disaster of 1914
by Steve Hanon
One of the most devastating industrial accidents in Canadian history is finally brought to light. On a warm spring day in June of 1914, two hundred and thirty-five men went down into the depths of the Hillcrest mine, found in Alberta’s Crowsnest Pass. Only forty-six would make it out alive. The largest mining disaster in Canadian history, the fateful tale of the Hillcrest Mine is finally captured in startling detail by Steve Hanon. A deft examination of the coal mining industry in an Alberta just on the cusp of entering the Great War, The Devil’s Breath is a startling recollection of heroism and human courage in the face of overwhelming calamity. Hanon examines the history of the mine itself, its owners and workers, possible causes for the disaster and the lasting effects that it had on those who survived, while educating readers on the techniques used to wrench coal from the bowels of the earth.
[BIO] Steve Hanon is a documentary filmmaker who was born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta and now lives in Calgary. A slate of odd jobs over the years including railman, racquetball club attendant, and courier were a lead up to working in radio and television throughout Western Canada for twenty years.
