Selected by editor Mark Anthony Jarman, the 2023 edition of Best Canadian Stories showcases the best Canadian fiction writing published in 2021. A collection that takes us into a firey near-future and a notorious feminist' s personal past, from a near-drowning to a fake breakdown, through mothers who fail us to crummy jobs, to thieves, to grief, to revenge with a bottle of tabasco sauce. With work by established practitioners alongside that of lesser-known writers, this year' s Best Canadian Stories shows how the short form can evoke the experience of a person on the brink. Including 2023 Metcalf-Rooke Award winner Caroline Adderson, and featuring, in tribute, two stories by the late Steven Heighton, this year' s collection draws together beloved Canadian practitioners of the form and thrilling new voices to continue not only a series, but a legacy in Canadian letters. Featuring works by:Caroline Adderson * David Bezmozgis * Jowita Bydlowska * Kate Cayley * Tamas Dobozy * Omar El Akkad * Christine Estima * Naomi Fontaine * Sara Freeman * Steven Heighton * Philip Huynh * David Huebert * Alexandra Mae Jones * Carmelinda Scian
