- Summary:
- "It was February 29 again, and I was wondering which member of my family would try to kill me this time." From this intriguing premise, the stories in this collection of short fiction by new Canadian writers map out fifteen wildly different approaches to the same terrain. From comedies about vampire conversions and French-Canadian werewolves to tense family dramas about humanoid robots and fairy-zombie hybrids, these stories chart a new set of possibilities for short fiction in Canada today.
