Two great story collections from Edmonton literary power couple Blaine Newton (2025) and Leslie Greentree (2022). (Both U of C Press). You might run into them holding court at Irrational Brewing.

The 2025 short story collection by Tim Bowling, on the shortlist of the Atwood Gibson Writers’ Trust Fiction Prize. My favourite story in this is, "Bartleby, the Sessional", set in a lecture hall at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. #ABbooks
