Rooted on the west coast of Canada, but reaching as far as London and Baghdad, these stories navigate the internal and external landscape of a diverse group of characters—island drifters, film industry mothers, an activist turned soldier, a soldier turned torturer, an adopted chef in quest of his cultural heritage, an anaesthetist watching the slow demise of her relationship. Wrestling notions of identity and personal choice, the characters wend wayward, often humorous, paths through the cultural detritus of our times. In their struggle to make sense of the world, some find clarity.
