this is all we know (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781038310729)

In this second collection of short stories, Ettles offers a version of the Canadian landscape against which eccentric tales and colourful characters evoke ever-shifting perspectives on what we see and who we are. A modern working woman of 1983 looks to escape her version of nuclear family hell. A lonely vampire seeks companionship. A dysfunctional rural family harbours a white-collar criminal on the run. These and other narratives explore nuanced societal spaces of money, youth, food and fame, city and country, sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression. Throughout the forging of identity, for ourselves and for those around us, is each ephemeral, sublime, surreal (so real) moment⎯this is all we know.
