| Cranbrook, British Columbia, is your quintessential Rocky Mountain town, but in The Secret History of My Hometown, it is anything but typical. A young lovesick Ernest Hemingway hunts for missing elephants; Leon Trotsky decides that Cranbrook, not Mexico City, is the perfect place to hide away; and after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, a Chinese familyâ s grocery storeâ s survival rests in the hands of the legendary Monkey King. Andrew Boden provides an array of original voices that add humour and personality to this imagined history, resulting in a collection of stories that demonstrate the powerfully deep and often unremembered history of smalltown life. |
