But Jarman doesn't just write about people, he puts us in their skin so that we feel their frailty and courage. No other contemporary Canadian short-story writer slices up the imaginative excitement, cultural hybridity, and Joycean play of language we see in \u003cem\u003e19 Knives\u003c\/em\u003e. With one of the stories shortlisted for the U.S.'s prestigious O. Henry Prize and several others having won prizes or been published in magazines and journals across North America, this collection brings a major fiction writer to the fore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Jarman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0887848028\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887848025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Astoria\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.66h x 6.62w x 0.40d","brand":"Mark Jarman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44063471370495,"sku":"9780887848025","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7a0a394e-9415-4366-96c4-1e991d7c8c64.jpg?v=1685389749","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/19-knives-mark-anthony-jarman-9780887848025","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
