Telling Stories

(2002)
An anthology of stories edited by

 
 
Three years ago Montreal's CBC Radio (88.5 FM) and the Quebec Writers' Federation established the CBC-QWF Short Story Competition. The winning stories were broadcast on CBC's "Art Talks" hosted by Katherine Gombay. This book brings together the winners and finalists of the first three years. These are stories that explore a wide range of human experience from a diversity of viewpoints - infants barely beginning to grasp spoken language, elders awaiting death, strangers in strange lands, and the bored and lonely. This is a collection of short literary tales that deftly juxtapose humour and pain, the quirky and the mundane, the urban and the rural. These new voices also showcase the multicultural reality of Quebec life - the diversity of people who chose to live in this province.
