A Traveller Came By: Stories About Dying

No Customer Reviews

This is a collection of ten stories by one of Canada's foremost fiction writers, designed to be a bedside book for people living with death. In his challenging, affirmative introduction Sean Virgo suggests: "We prepare best for death, surely by loving life." These stories express the full range of that dialect, from heartbreak to raunchy comedy, with more than a few speculations about what lies across the border of "the undiscovered country". Each story is prefaced with an intimate personal account of how it came to be written, and what it now means to the author.
