Claudia Dey
(Coach House Books, 2008)
In Sunday's Toronto Star, reviewer Patricia Robertson calls Claudia Dey’s first novel, Stunt (Coach House Books), “rich with poetic detail, alive with original characters....” Dey’s “powers of description are formidable,” Robertson writes, “It’s as if poet Anne Carson and satirist Mordecai Richler accidentally collided at a drunken PEN fundraiser to produce a mischievous, magical and observant girl-child.” You can catch the magical and observant Claudia Dey at the launch for Stunt at This Is Not A Reading Series on Wednesday, April 23 at 7:30 p.m. Visit our events page for details.
About Stunt: Eugenia Ledoux, nine years old, wakes to a note from her father: ‘gone to save the world. sorry. yours, sheb wooly ledoux. asshole.’
