Scrutiny by his new academic neighbours is the least of his worries, as he learns of the existence of Aaron Schnell, his physical pseudo-twin, and an actor and film \"double.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Chair shares fragments from the oeuvre of Thomas Claque, a recently deceased author who contrived the tale of the pseudo-twins. The Chair's scholarship leads him to the real Máximo College, where he revives those characters and scenarios, before travelling to a smaller prairie town where he reimagines one of Claque's risqué getaways. There he meets a young woman doing her creative thesis on the double in literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePetra, a police clerk in an entirely different prairie city, receives a photograph of a missing person and recognizes a passenger from her weekday commute. Non-routine surveillance draws her deeper into his world until a global pandemic abruptly stalls her progress. Her romantic prospect soon leads to a greater mystery punctuated by the words, TULPA MEA CULPA, although its uncanny truth will be ultimately less provocative than serial coverage in the Prairie Pulse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eTulpa Mea Culpa\u003c\/i\u003e is a literary tour-de-force and solidifies Morse as one of Canada's most exciting writers today and proves why he is a two-time Governor General Award nominee.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Garry Morse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1988168953\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781988168951\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e At Bay Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Garry Morse","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44130238529791,"sku":"9781988168951","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4b48125a-279d-4069-b82e-0dbafc07b710.jpg?v=1687468308","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tulpa-mea-culpa-garry-morse-9781988168951","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
