Kathy Page's new collection of short fiction focuses on pairs — intense one-on-one relationships and encounters. Characters undergo genetic testing, garden, overeat, starve themselves, travel, fall pregnant, all while simultaneously driving each other towards moments where they sometimes unwillingly glimpse the meaning and shape of their lives, and who they might become. Following the success of her 2014 Giller Prize-longlisted collection Paradise & Elsewhere, The Two of Us offers stories that explore the emotional knots that bind us all. (From Biblioasis)
The Two of Us was longlisted for the Scotiabank Giller Prize in 2016.
