The author explores losing and doubting one's voice in an experimental narrative form. The novel is written almost entirely in single-syllable words, to reflect Tuck’s dissociative mental state. This author’s works have been on many award lists, including the Governor General’s Literary Award, BC & Yukon Book Prizes and Forest of Reading.
