GLORIOUS FRAZZLED BEINGS by Angélique Lalonde

Glorious Frazzled Beings Four sisters and their mother explore their fears while teeny ghost people dress up in fragments of their children's clothes. A somewhat-ghost tends the family garden. Deep in the mountains, a shapeshifting mother must sift through her ancestors' gifts and the complexities of love when one boy is born with a beautiful set of fox ears and another is not. In the wake of her elderly mother's tragic death, a daughter tries to make sense of the online dating profile she left behind. And a man named Pooka finds new ways to weave new stories into his abode, in spite of his inherited suffering. A startling and beguiling story collection, Glorious Frazzled Beings is a love song to the homes we make, keep, and break. (From House of Anansi Press) Glorious Frazzled Beings was on the 2021 Scotiabank Giller Prize shortlist. New. In perfect condition.
