In this delightfully quirky and sometimes provocative collection of stories, Conrad Romuld spells things out just the way they were when Saskatchewan was young and, in rural communities like Banshee, everyone knew what everyone else had had for breakfast. Romuld presents a remarkable array of seemingly ordinary people who find themselves caught up in extraordinary situations - situations that range from the laugh-out-loud comic to the starkly tragic. These stories offer the kind of unvarnished truth that rarely finds its way on to the pages of history books. Book jacket.
