Would they include the stuff they didn’t want their mom, or the newspapers, to read?Here are twenty-four short pieces of fiction on the theme of sex, by twenty-four prominent authors living in Canada. Heather O’Neill, Lisa Moore, Michael Winter, Zoe Whittall, Pasha Malla, Francesca Ekwuyasi, Drew Hayden Taylor, Tamara Faith Berger and Susan Swan are among these. But we won’t tell you who wrote what.The pieces are uncensored, unpredictable; they veer from graphic to subtle to surreal. There is straight sex and gay sex. There is frustrated sex. There is sex that happens entirely through texts. And one scene does actually occur in a canoe.This is a book of erotic imaginings by some of Canada’s most sophisticated and respected writers, working in total freedom, secretly.A RARE MACHINES BOOKContributorsRussell SmithRussell Smith is a novelist and acquiring editor at Dundurn Press.
