Description
A woman and her daughter make a trip into town to attend lunch with Queen Elizabeth II. A last-minute detour to see the local sites on the way home throws their lives into focus in ways neither of them expected.
Finalist for the Giller Prize and winner of the Saskatchewan Book of the Year, Casino & Other Stories pulls us beneath the surface of convention into uncharted and often unpredictable emotional territory. Wry and intelligent, humane and touching, Bonnie Burnard’s stories seduce and then surprise us with a sense of the familiar finally understood, and of passion recognized.
