Description
Winner of the John Hirsch Award for Most Promising Manitoba Writer (Manitoba Writing and Publishing Awards).
Todd Bruce mythologizes the life of Jiggers, an alcoholic anti-hero who performs his daily rituals with only barstools for pews, a skid row bar as his cathedral, and Mary, his lover, as his only witness.
"A poet of significant potential."
-Books in Canada
"Bruce has woven in an integrity that is above and beyond mere digression and randomness." -Prairie Fire
