These stories are based on episodes and materials from my personal life, and are widely varied. Most are set in Montreal, between 1967 and 2012, while a few are set in Newfoundland, and 1 is set in Africa. They are about women, men, children, politics and community, and the conflicts, as well as the harmony, that arise from all of these.
