West by Northwest: British Columbia Short Stories

West by Northwest is a classic collection of British Columbia short stories ranging across geography, cultures, and writing style, including the voices of 25 of Canada's finest writers, spanning the century, and defining the imaginative contours of Canada's fastest-growing province. Here are stories from the sea and the islands, from coastal cities and interior ranchlands, from mountains, valleys, and northern rivers. Here, too, are tales of diverse communities: family life in Chinatown, a Russian Doukhobor wedding, poverty in a mill town, racism in Vancouver.
