Publisher's Synopsis
The 1920's called: they said it's time for surrealism to have a comeback!
As an old artistic movement, the most famous examples of surrealism seem to be the works of visual art - think Salvador Dali, or Frida Kahlo. Lesser known is that there also exists a select amount of surrealist written works which are equally vibrant and thrilling in their own ways. Seemingly normal at first, these stories will take you for a ride that might be like your last roller coaster experience: up, down, all around, slow, fast, surprising, and unexpected. The stories, as well as the way they are written, will be a unique experience. This book is a collection of short stories that feature a modern Canadian take on surrealism. Written by one author over a period of a few years, some of them are based on real Canadian experiences. Others, though, are completely fictitious and take on the sub-genres of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror. There are some difficult topics in a few of the stories - caution is advised for those who have triggers. If you're ready to experience a modern spin on an older art form, then it's time to check out The Last Calico Cat!
