BOOK

WALKING WITH WALSER

I write fiction for fun, and I’m a self-published author. I am so proud of my book! I think it’s pretty amazing to be alive in the era of self-publishing.

My fictional novella Walking With Walser came out in 2015 and is now available as a paperback and an ebook at Chapters and Amazon.

Told in the eccentric voice of a middle-aged writer who idolizes the German modernist Robert Walser, the story follows Ursula on a day-long walk in her beloved downtown neighbourhood, Queen St. West in Toronto.

The affect of this book is staggering: like its narrator, it is bold, outrageous, opinionated, and deeply compassionate.”
