Widening the Road (Paperback)

Fred Bonnie's previous collection, Detecting Metal, was included in Booklist's Top of the List for 1998. We believe that you'll find this collection as deserving. Bonnie was a writer not afraid to use plot in his stories, and he was a writer on a constant lurk for characters. His stories convey a delightful sense of humor wherein the protagonist is often enough hoisted by his or her own petard. These stories combine two out-of-print Canadian collections, Squatter's Rights and Displaced Persons. Fred revised all the stories, which appear in America for the first time in book form.
