ALEXIS, ANDRE - Despair and Other Stories of Ottawa

McClelland & Stewart, 1994. First Edition. Paperback. ISBN: 0889104786. Stated First Edition. Trade Paperback with French Flaps. Very Good+ with a solid binding, bright, unmarked pages. A small black mark to the bottom edges. Light corner bumping and cover rubbing. "These eight stories reveal a world that's both recognizable and strange: cities of anxiety and violence, where quiet inhabitants lead outwardly banal lives that conceal sinister interiors. The premises, both fantastic and surreal, are also eerily plausible; they often follow the logic of dreams where the real can appear in disguise. Though geographically rooted, the setting - from Ottawa to Toronto and the South of France - take on an ephemeral dimension: the geography is of the subconscious." ; 5.5 X 0.75 X 8.5 inches; 229 pages. Very Good .
