    Like a River Divides the Earth

    Dora Dueck

    Simply luminous in their discernment and precision, the five stories in this collection explore complicated family tensions and misunderstandings, and complex ideas of faith and love. Ranging from the contemporary to the historical, from England and British Columbia to Russia and Germany to Brazil, the stories follow thoughtful and perceptive characters, some on the verge of adulthood and others at the end of life, but all living and contemplating lives of both estrangement and connection.
