About this Book
Set in the rugged northern climes of Newfoundland and Labrador, Open Country features eighteen short stories of loss and triumph, and perseverance of the spirit through adversity. Rich with colloquial flavour and wit, these stories capture profound insights on human strengths and frailties.

The lives of woodsmen and fishermen, wives and girlfriends, the holy and the ordinary, and the essence of their small-town ways are here distilled in the newest classic in Newfoundland and Labrador literature.

Long listed for the 2005 ReLit Awards.
