About one of the nominees Key In Lock by Rona Altrows...
This collection of mostly first person narratives overflows with witty, compulsive females. It’s a literary cathedral for worried women. Their husbands and lovers might let them down, their neighbours and their bodies might let them down, but Rona Altrows’ women keep on keeping on. Contemporary anxiety never had it so good.
—David Carpenter, author of Welcome to Canada
