Tells the story of a successful though conflicted lady litigator, told with a dark undercurrent of humour that underpins this striking meditation on dying, and discovering a meaningful approach to living.

With these three books (in one) Vladimir Azarov moves toward the completion of what has turned out to be a most extraordinary ten-book autobiography, and the recollections of a young man in Moscow during the tumultuous times after Joseph Stalin's death and the days under Nikita Khrushchev, known as The Thaw.

Explores the early drawings of Canadian artist Claire Wilks, their presciently feminist visual vocabulary. David Sobelman does so by looking at the drawings - so open in their sexuality, so puzzling in their vision of motherhood, so sensually affirming in their engagement with death in the Shoah camps - through the lens of that ancient figure Eros.

Mexican-Canadian Martha Batiz has crafted, in her first collection written in English, visceral stories with piercing and evocative qualities. She has filled her recognisable, sisterly/motherly, and imaginative characters with qualities we all hold close to our hearts, but this is powerfully juxtaposed by the uncertainty that lurks at the edges of ordinary lives.
