| In Sarah Robert's debut collection "Wax Boats", a rural island community comes to life in action-packed, evocative tales. Cougar ladies fight the BC wilderness and the inevitable extinction of their peaceful island lives. An expectant mother turns to Native traditions to guide her through a safe delivery. A Boy Scout troupe rescues their own leader, and learns to welcome someone "from away". The collection introduces thought-provoking characters caught between the encroaching modern, industrial world and the hard truths of lives lived at the edge of everything. |
