Produktbeschreibung
Stuffed Animals is a collection of haunting, sparsely wrought micro fiction. Each story invites the reader in and then delights and torments them with surprises and plot twists. Whether you are in the mood for black humour, spine-tingling horror, or soul-wrenching tragedy, you will find it within these pages. While the stories explore a wide range of themes and genres, they share an interest in word play and conceptual games. With complex imagination, compelling characters, and gripping storylines, Stuffed Animals asks the reader to sit down, dig in, and not let go. It captures an unsettling balance of beauty and repulsion, the writing versing more as artistic expression than conventional storytelling.
Autorenporträt
Wayne Johnston is a painter, a performance artist, a writer and a librarian. It is primarily through his career as a librarian that Wayne has had the opportunity to endulge his desire for travel. From setting up a resource centre on wildlife management in the Canadian Arctic to working with refugees and victims of war in Croatia, he feels fortunate to not only travel to some fascinating places but to engage with the local people over extended periods of time. It is through thinking back over these experiences that Wayne realized that he missed those cities like he missed old friends. It gave him the longing to see those cities one more time and to explore how revisiting them would impact the memories that he cherishes. Wayne currently lives with his wife in Guelph, Ontario and works at the University of Guelph Library.
