Finalist for the 2015 Giller PrizeFinalist for the 2016 Best Translated Book AwardLike a Proust-obsessed Cormac McCarthy, Samuel Archibald's portrait of his hometown is filled with innocent children and wild beasts, attempted murder and ritual mutilation, haunted houses and road trips to nowhere, bad men and mysterious women. Gothic, fantastical, and incandescent, filled with stories of everyday wonder and terror, longing and love, Arvida explores the line which separates memory from story, and heralds the arrival of an important new voice. | Arvida by Samuel Archibald, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
