The Young in Their Country: and Other Stories - Cumyn, Richard

Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to lower spine extreme; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; The young occupy a territory of their own, a foreign land inaccessible to nostalgia and regret. In these eloquent, arresting stories, an assortment of exotic youth send tremors through the foundations of the established world: four summer students interrupt a one-famous artist's retreat from society; a naive job seeker shakes a frustrated employee out of middle-aged complacency; and a high school student's safety is threatened by her teacher's passion for the Riel Rebellion. Unsentimental, often funny, each story in this book is a complete world.
