If you haven't had a chance to pick up a copy, you may want to put it on your list. Darwin's Bastards is a fantastic collection of tales strung together by the outlandish Zsuzsi Gartner featuring some of the greatest writers around. This volume includes works by William Gibson, Douglas Coupland, Anosh Irani, and the previously mentioned delicious short by Yann Martel.
Reviews: Globe and Mail
While we are on the topic of Zsuzsi Gartner, on Wednesday, May 11: Zsuzsi Gartner will be discussing her latest book, Better Living Through Plastic Explosives. The fine folks at the VIWF will be hosting another incite event in the Alice MacKay Room at the Vancouver Central Library. Joining Zsuzsi that evening will be singer-songwriter Sylvia Tyson who will be reading from her debut novel, Joyner's Dream. Should be a great night.
