A master of magic realism, Jack Hodgins has set his novels in rural Vancouver Island and thus raised this place to mythic levels. This collection of essays celebrates Hodgins' achievements. The
contributors include Ron Hatch, Linda Morra, Joel Martineau, Jeanne Delbaere, Tim Struthers, Elizabeth Galway, Duffy Roberts, Travis Mason, and Waldemar Zacharasiewicz. As the editor, Annika
Hannan includes her critical introduction, an essay, Hodgins' biography and a very useful bibliography. Annika Hannan teaches at George Brown College in Toronto
