Description

We may be lost but we are never alone. That is the message to be found in Brenda Hasiuk's new collection of short stories, Boy Lost in Wild. Adrift in unfamiliar surroundings, strangers to the strangers around them, the characters in each story feel lost even though they are inextricably tied to one another. A foreign student, mugged on the streets of Winnipeg, befriends his landlord. A young man bursting with rage shares a quiet moment with a sibling. The tears of a child who cannot find his way home are soothed by the voice of an elderly woman.

\n

Through sparkling prose, Hasiuk's stories ring true, cutting through the alienation of urban life and lighting the threads that bind us to one another.

There are facts, there is fiction, and then there is truth. That's where these stories land - upright and on both feet. These sharply focused stories are confident, engaging, and wise. You won't want to miss a word.
