Sinners and Other Saints

A short story collection by a Canadian author that provides glimpses of ordinary people in difficult situations that readers will certainly identify with, whether serious, silly or sad. Facts read like fiction and fiction like fact.
Nancy is noted for her honesty and directness. Her take on ordinary life is from extraordinary angles depending more on the odd, rather than on the spectacular, to engage her reader in a between-you-and-me intimacy. She's been described as having a gunslinger's aim for the accuracy of her perceptions and sometimes expressing them with a decidedly quirky sense of humour.
You'll laugh and cry and applaud this author. Her characters are embodied with an uncommon sense of affection told in the voice of a good friend.
