Omschrijving

A woman contemplates the deadly consequences of a croissant. Children's fates are intertwined with a Rottweiler's. Witty and refreshing, with unpredictable plots and quirky characters, Death Sentences intrigue and entertain. Death may seem a grim subject matter but, in the capable hands of Suzanne Myre, nothing is beyond humor. Though at times sincere, sorrowful, and even a tad gruesome, Death Sentences is also wry, mordant, and amusingly ironic. Death Sentences features 13 unique short stories, thematically united by death, sex, and existential angst. Solitary and dejected characters explore Montreal's parks and alleys, seeking comfort and contending with their own everyday tragedies.
