Emily via the Greyhound Bus<br />

Allison Kydd<br />

Thistledown Press<br />

$12.95 9781927068090<br />

FICTION<br />

Emily is on a bus, nauseous, and reflecting on her past life —<br />

on jobs she has worked, relationships she has had, and what<br />

has shaped her as a woman. Years of making the wrong choices,<br />

especially with men, and memories of children she couldn’t<br />

keep, have left her confidence shaken. In flight, without much<br />

money and not even a suitcase, Emily becomes a tragic figure<br />

but somehow through her independence and determination<br />

rises above this stereotype. As the bus rolls west from Toronto<br />

across the prairies Emily’s hard-edged impulse for survival and<br />

her instinctual savvy lead her to an unexpected self-awareness.<br />

64 pages, 5.5 x 8.5 in (14 x 21.5 cm)<br />

David Elias<br />

Hagios Press<br />

$15.95 9781926710181<br />

With the elements of a good ‘road story’ this novella by David<br />

Elias reveals his particular craft for seamlessly grounding a forceful<br />

narrative in the authentic and sometimes disturbing details in the<br />

lives of his characters. Elias takes on a broad scope in this darkly<br />

humorous take on mid-life, personal crisis, and chess.<br />

96 pages, 5.5 x 7.5 in (14 x 19 cm)<br />
