“All the textures of life are here – the grime, the dailyness, the intricacies, the pain, and then, like small but devastating miracles, moments of intense joy that will take your breath away.”
–Margaret Atwood
“Our worlds are made real.…and understood with a hearty, fearless intelligence.”
–Bonnie Burnard
“Superb stories from a master storyteller.”

Book Description
Completed shortly before her early death, Bronwen Wallace did not live to see the publication of this, her only book of fiction. Capturing the moment when her unique talent blossomed in a new direction, this new edition of her life-affirming, universal stories will allow her to be read by a another generation of readers. Wallace’s poetry and short stories have been anthologized, and have appeared in periodicals across the country. She won a National Magazine Award, the Pat Lowther Award, the Du Maurier Award for Poetry, and in 1989 she was named Regional Winner of the Commonwealth Poetry Prize in the U.K.

Touched my Soul,
By maloney@eba.ca (Calgary, Alberta) - See all my reviews
This review is from: People You'd Trust Your Life To (Paperback)
Bronwyn Wallace's series of short stories tells tales of heart ache and joy. Her book touched my life. Her understanding of women and their goals and dreams is very clear. Possibly made clearer by the fact that she died of cancer while completing the final edit of this book. Her final story entitled, People You'd Trust Your Life To, is a story of a group of women who provide the support for each other through thick and thin. Bronwyn was an excellent writer.
