A career-spanning collection of stories from the author of Fifteen Dogs, winner of the Scotiabank Giller Prize, the Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize, and Canada Reads.Vivid, pro found, moving, and with moments of sly humour, the stories in The Night Piece reveal worlds both familiar and deeply strange.
