NeyashingA novel of magic realism on the prairies The small river churns like a mad thing through the escarpment before falling to the valley below. It calms itself slightly, and widens as it approaches Neyashing. The sheer exuberance of this place is at odds with the prairie surrounding it - and in perfect harmony with the people who live there.Claude Laroche is the policeman. Hubert Martin is the mayor. And Hubert's wife Maria runs the local garage. In any other small town in south Manitoba, they would sort through their daily business without many bumps. But this is Neyashing, an anomaly of a place where history intrudes on the present and cultures collide. Surrounded by a cast of characters bursting with opinions, Claude, Hubert, and Maria grapple with their worldview as everything around them transforms. David Suderman shows us the joys, sorrows, and magic at the heart of a changing Canada in a novel that brims with warmth and humanity.
