Book Description

A computer techie by trade, Dewey Pellicano would rather swallow needles than be pinned down to a life of quilting. But when her mother passes away, Dewey must exchange code for calico as the new proprietress of Quilter Paradiso. Between learning the business and dealing with a conniving employee who is also her sister-in-law, Dewey is ready to snap. During a national quilt show, quilting celebrity Claire Armstrong offers to buy the shop. But before Dewey can accept, she finds the famous quilter lying dead on the floor—a bloody rotary cutter at her side. When hunky homicide detective Buster Healy enters the scene, romance flourishes...until another murder takes place. Can Dewey thread together the pieces to this murderous pattern before the killer strikes again? Wild Goose Chase is the first book in the Quilting Mystery series featuring amateur sleuth Dewey Pellicano.

Book Description

It was 1992 and everybody was against me so I got up really early and placed a call to the U.S. embassy in Bamako, the capital of Mali.... I told Scott ( was going to Timbuktu. He asked me if he could have my TV set if I didn't come back. I said yes. Then he asked me why I was going. Because, I replied, there's a wild goose honking in my ear...and the bastard won't shut up! So begins the latest gonzo journey by filmmaker Trent Harris (Rubin and Ed, Plan l0 from Outer Space), this one by plane, boat, camel, and pen. Following the wild goose, Harris travels to Timbuktu, choosing his destination in part because it's just so damned hard to get to. Chronicling the details of his trip -- along with assorted other thoughts, historical tidbits, memories, and unrelated tangents -- Harris leads us on a funny and ultimately poignant trip.

Book Description

A treasure chest of exceptional stories by one of Canadas classic authorsall now available in one volume. Ernest Buckler, best known as the author of the Canadian classic, The Mountain and the Valley, never achieved the lasting fame he deserved. His first story was published in Esquire, a significant American literary magazine known for publishing leading writers such as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Sinclair Lewis. Over the years, nearly forty more of Buckler’s short stories were published in several popular magazines, including Maclean’s where his story “The Quarrel” won first prize for fiction. In Thanks for Listening: Stories and Short Fictions by Ernest Buckler, Marta Dvořák gathers together many of those stories as well as some previously unpublished pieces. At times she has chosen to include the fuller, original versions, and has reinstated some of the lost passages that were cut from stories to fit popular magazine requirements. Ernest Buckler’s writing is rooted in the magic of the ordinary. He celebrates the land and its community, and sensuously recreates a paradise — almost a Garden of Eden. Buckler’s American editors were right in believing that no one evoked the lost world of North Americas agrarian past better than Ernest Buckler.
