The Bliss House
J
Jim Bartley- Inhabits the Ontario heartland of Alice Munro with misfits worthy of Flannery O'Connor and Cormac McCarthy, in a queer Thelma and Louise story
- By turns tender and horrific, with black humour reminiscent of Joel and Ethan Coen's films, and lots of bodies to dispose of
- A gay love story unfolds between distant cousins Wes and Cam and drives the desperate action as they attempt to outrun nosy neighbours who keep interfering
- Comparative titles: Francie's Got a Gun by Carrie Snyder and No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy
- The story setting takes us from a Southwestern Ontario farm near Wingham and Hanover, and then on a road trip to Northern Ontario
- Author residence: Toronto and Dufferin County
