Animal person : stories / Alexander MacLeod. by MacLeod, Alexander, 1972- McClelland and Stewart, 2022. Call #: FICTION MACL Subjects Dartmouth Book Award. ISBN:  9780771029882 (hc.) Description:  241 p. ; 22 cm. Contents:  Lagomorph -- The dead want -- What exactly do you think you're looking at? -- Everything underneath -- The entertainer -- The ninth concession -- Once removed -- The closing date. Summary:  "Startling, suspenseful, deeply humane yet alert to the undertow of our darker instincts, the eight stories in Animal Person illuminate what it means to exist in the perilous space between desire and action, and to have your faith in what you hold true buckle and give way. A petty argument between two sisters is interrupted by an unexpected visitor. Adjoining motel rooms connect a family on the brink of a new life with a criminal whose legacy will haunt them for years to come. A connoisseur of other people's secrets is undone by what he finds in a piece of lost luggage. In the wake of a tragic accident, a young man must contend with what is owed to the living and to the dead. And in the O. Henry Award-winning story "Lagomorph," a man's relationship with his family's long-lived pet rabbit opens up to become a profound exploration of how a marriage fractures. Muscular and tender, beautifully crafted, and alive with an elemental power, these stories explore the struggle for meaning and connection in an age when many of us feel cut off from so much, not least ourselves. This is a collection that beats with raw emotion and shimmers with the complexity of our shared human experience, and it confirms Alexander MacLeod's reputation as a modern master of the short story." -- Provided by Publisher.
