𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊:
A beautifully crafted second short story collection from award-winning writer Alice Zorn.
With an uncompromising and relatable voice, Zorn travels through Mexico, Morocco, Texas, England, Austria, Tunisia, and northeastern Quebec in these seven short stories and one novella, each following a compelling narrator on a quest — to find someone who does not wish to be found, to discover the truth behind family secrets, to expiate guilt, to make new bonds, to realize a dream. Far from home, facing new mirrors, characters leave old selves behind and discover new ones. Alice Zorn shines once again in this exploration of friendship, love, art, work, gender, and cultural identity in this spectacular collection of travel fiction.
𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐔𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐑:
Originally from Hamilton, Ontario, Alice Zorn has now lived for many years in Montréal. Her writing has won or been shortlisted for awards across Canada. Mind the Gap is her fifth book of fiction.
𝐏𝐑𝐀𝐈𝐒𝐄 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐄 𝐙𝐎𝐑𝐍:
“Zorn's precise, compelling descriptions and unusual storylines linger long after the book is finished.”—Anita Anand, award-winning author of A Convergence of Solitudes
“ Zorn’s characters travel the world in search of something or someone but end up finding themselves. An absorbing, lyrical, and bewitching collection.”—Theresa Shea, bestselling author of The Shade Tree
“Zorn is a compelling storyteller, deft in the art of leaving us wanting more.” — Katia Grubisic, Governor General’s Award-winning author of What if red ran out
