These twelve stories are set in Quebec’s Eastern Townships – an enchanting region that is in the throes of deep transformation. They are quirky, touching, funny and, sometimes, outrageous. They tell of relationships that could only exist in a rural environment comprised of English and French speakers living among traditional mixed farms, high-end vineyards and million-dollar weekend estates

Many of the stories were first published in their shorter versions in Le Tour, a bilingual newspaper published in Sutton, Quebec since 1983.
