O tym produkcie

Product Information

The characters of Moccasin Square Gardens inhabit Denendeh, the land of the people north of the sixtieth parallel. These stories are filled with in-laws, outlaws and common-laws. Get ready for illegal wrestling moves ("The Camel Clutch"), pinky promises, a doctored casino, extraterrestrials or "Sky People," love, lust and prayers for peace. While this is Van Camp's most hilarious short story collection, it's also haunted by the lurking presence of the Wheetago, human-devouring monsters of legend that have returned due to global warming and the greed of humanity. The stories in Moccasin Square Gardens show that medicine power always comes with a price. To counteract this darkness, Van Camp weaves a funny and loving portrayal of the Tlicho Dene and other communities of the North, drawing from oral history techniques to perfectly capture the character and texture of everyday small-town life. "Moccasin Square Gardens" is the nickname of a dance hall in the town of Fort Smith that serves as a meeting place for a small but diverse community. In the same way, the collection functions as a meeting place for an assortment of characters, from shamans and time-travelling goddess warriors to pop-culture-obsessed pencil pushers, to con artists, archivists and men who just need to grow up, all seeking some form of connection.

Reviews
Reading Van Camp's stories is like sitting around the kitchen table, sipping strong tea and listening to the aunties share some really good gossip. And, like that gossip, you need to pay attention because he is saying just as much in his silences as he is with his words., "Van Camp has an ear for crafting dialogue, an astuteness for chronicling humanity, and a knack for evoking laughter and horror in a single passage. Van Camp is an extraordinary writer...This book is a testament that his work should be required reading for both college courses and veracious bibliophiles who want to spend time lost in the words of a true master." - Ryan Winn, Tribal College Journal: Journal of American Indian Higher Education, December 2019, Van Camp's keen ear for dialogue and lithe storytelling breathe hope and humour even into the darkest corners of human existence. His boldest, most compelling collection yet., If you're starting to feel a little like you've just arrived at a house party, when you were expecting an intimate dinner for two, that's good preparation...Van Camp is an exceptionally welcoming storyteller. Even when he's talking about the end of the world, he's got this way of making you feel like you could move closer to the fire and all will be well. It's easy to forget that the fire could be apocalyptic. Whether or not the stories are printed on paper, you can feel that they are meant to be told and heard as much as, in this format, they are to be read. Oral storytelling is a keystone in Richard Van Camp's Tlicho Dene community, and his collections offer a glimpse of his skill and the world he inhabits... Readers who appreciate linked short story collections like these will find the breadth of Van Camp's work particularly satisfying. Readers who enjoy the work of Indigenous storytellers from other nations--like Sherman Alexie (Spokane-Coeur d'Alene), Dawn Dumont (Cree-Métis), and Thomas King (Cherokee-German-Greek)--will want to add Van Camp's books to their stacks. And readers looking to expand their worlds on the page beyond the 60th parallel, who are keen on short fiction by writers like Junot Díaz, Simon Rich, and Helen Simpson, also will be pleased to visit Moccasin Square Gardens ., "Richard Van Camp has gleaned the old in the new. He holds the endangered precious out, and shows us where it is kept." --Tantoo Cardinal "Reading Van Camp's stories is like sitting around the kitchen table, sipping strong tea and listening to the aunties share some really good gossip. And, like that gossip, you need to pay attention because he is saying just as much in his silences as he is with his words." --Katherena Vermette "Van Camp's keen ear for dialogue and lithe storytelling breathe hope and humour even into the darkest corners of human existence. His boldest, most compelling collection yet." --Eden Robinson, Richard Van Camp has gleaned the old in the new. He holds the endangered precious out, and shows us where it is kept.
