In one daring act on a magnificently hot summer afternoon, a young girl challenges her mother, her upbringing, and her modesty, shifting from childhood into the murky world of adulthood.
Finalist for the Giller Prize and winner of the Saskatchewan Book of the Year, Casino & Other Stories pulls us beneath the surface of convention into uncharted and often unpredictable emotional territory. Wry and intelligent, humane and touching, Bonnie Burnard’s stories seduce and then surprise us with a sense of the familiar finally understood, and of passion recognized.
