| Publisher Description: With exceptional power, Robinson exposes both the gravity and levity of relationships--formed in duty, in fear, in need--and the subtle ways we attempt to escape their persistent pull. At turns humourous, chilling and tender, Robinson's fiction displays a versatility in tone and subject that mirrors the stories of our lives, real or imagined, domestic or exotic. His writing elevates the "What If?" to new imaginary heights. |
