Many of today’s high-profile writers had early work in this anthology, including André Alexis, David Bergen, Dennis Bock, Elizabeth Hay, Elise Levine, Timothy Taylor, and M.G. Vassanji. The final selection to appear in the anthology will be made from a total of 85 stories, submitted by the editors of literary journals across the county.

She wrote Home Is Beyond the Mountains after hearing her mother's stories about growing up in Persia and after reading letter's written by Celia's aunt, Susan Shedd. Born in Iowa and raised in the United States, Celia now lives in Toronto.
Editorial Reviews
“The Journey Prize Anthology represents the haunting pulse of the country’s literary heartbeat.”
–Edmonton Journal
“Even for a country used to superb short story writers like Margaret Atwood, Alice Munro, and Mavis Gallant, this is impressive stuff.”
–Globe and Mail
