Description
A story about identity--about who we think we are and where we really stand--set in rural Ontario, this novel takes a provocative and honest look at class, power, male relationships, death, and the familial bonds that protect and harm us most. After a lifetime intertwined with the Aspinalls, one of Canada's wealthiest families, Andy Kronk has finally forged a clean break. Mere months pass, however, before his past returns in the form of Trudy Clark. She's writing a tell-all biography of the Aspinall family and wants Andy's perspective. Over the course of a weekend, Andy unravels his knotted mess of a life and begins to wonder if he's revealed too much information. Written in forceful prose, this novel opens up the world of power to reveal something essentially heartbreakingly human. This reissue includes a special section with author interviews, new insights, and a bonus work from the author.
