Look Inside the Book
Frank Ewert's disarming collection of short fiction starts off with an inside view of small-time, big identity Canadian hockey, its meaning, its plays, its lingo. But each story's distinct voice quickly reveals universal themes of rivalry, calling, discipline, infatuation, and national dignity that invite every reader to be more than a spectator. The characters have keen direction and surprising priorities that open this unknown world to the uninitiated.
What People Are Saying:
"Frank Ewert not only has a fine feel for the game and its wacky characters, he has a nice, laid-back storytelling style with a sense of humour." -Roy MacGregor, author of The Screech Owls Series and The Last Season
