New Canadian Noir, Paperback / softback Book

New Canadian Noir Paperback / softback

Edited by Claude Lalumiere, David Nickle

Part of the The Exile Book of Anthology Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Old vines and older grudges tangle in the Okanagan Valley.

An elderly widow, eking out a living collecting detritus, seeks to avenge the murder of her friend.

A love-weary security guard clashes with bounty hunters.

An ursine meth-cooker faces even stranger creatures on the frozen tundra of Nunavut.

As the dead walk and the living despair, a private detective unravels a bizarre mystery. In The Exile Book of New Canadian Noir, the whole spectrum of the noir esthetic is explored: from its hardboiled home in crime fiction to its grim forays into horror, fantasy, and surrealism; from the dystopian shadows it casts in science fiction to the mixture of desire and corruption it brings to erotica; from the blood-spattered romance of the frontier to the stark nihilism of literary realism.
