Leona Gom0.0 Ellen had adjusted to life in a small city. Chilliwack had become her home, but that was before Susan and Whitman Jervis moved in next door and drew her slowly into their troubled lives. Ellen’s involvement with them grows increasingly complex and dangerous until all of the secrets that lie between them are forced into revelation, but by then it is too late.
Rona Murray0.0 This is the first collection of stories from poet Rona Murray. She brings to her fiction the qualities of her poetry: a haunting sense of past and its effect upon the present, a sharp eye for physical detail and a lively ear for language. The stories, primarily concerned with individuals lost in their expectations and fantasies, range from depicting an old woman who sings her songs to store mannequins to another who may or may not be dead. These stories remain with the reader long after the book has been put aside.
