Description
At A Crazy Time Like This is a new collection of short stories about friendship, lessons both hilarious and trying, and colourful eighties Toronto. It stands alone, but also works as the companion volume to The Kind Of Friend You Need
Escaping a mind warping cult as a teenager is a big deal – but it leaves you with an awful lot of work to do, and a whole lot of big questions about the real world.
This book is filled with crazy friends and eccentric mentors whose gifts have never stopped shining for me. And when I say colourful Toronto I mean psychedelics, all night dance clubs, revolutionary politics, basement recording studios and heroes who ultimately revealed far more than they meant to, and sometimes even taught me things they never learned themselves.
The stories in this collection are:
Bus Station
Square Impostor
The Benevolent Dictator
Community Centre
What Happens When You Smoke A Joint During Morning Break In The Digital Lab
The Best Robert Anton Wilson Story I Know
Special Ed
Dizzying
Enough For One Lifetime
Through Lines, Side Tracks and Back Flips
Fate, Fault, Foolishness
