Synopsis

'INTIMATE STRANGERS' OPENS A TIMELY WINDOW ON THE LITERATURE OF QUEBEC. FOR THIS ANTHOLOGY, MATT COHEN AND WAYNE GRADY HAVE SELECTED WORKS BY THE NEW GENERATION OF QUEBEC WRITERS AND HAVE AMASSED AN IMPRESSIVE RECORD OF THE DIVERSE RICHES OF THE CONTEMPORARY QUEBECOIS SHORT STORY. THROUGH THESE STORIES, WHICH ARE LACED WITH HUMOUR, ELEMENTS OF THE SUPERNATURAL URBAN PARANOIA, AND THE VAGRIES OF 'LIBERATED LOVE', THE READER IS INTRODUCED TO THE UNEXPECTED KALEIDOSCOPE OF THEMES AND STYLES. FROM LOUISE MAHEUX-FORCIER'S ELEGANTLY EXPERIMENTAL GEMS, TO VICTOR-LEVY BEAULIEU'S HILARIOUS MODERN SEND-UP OF A TRADITIONAL FOLKTALE AND FRANCOIS BARCELO'S WITTY SATIRE ABOUT THE COLLISION OF THE MALE UNCONSCIOUS WITH THE NEW FEMINISM, THESE HIGHLYIMAGINATIVE AND OFF-BEAT STORIES ARE SURE TO SURPRISE AND ENTERTAIN.
