Sinopse
Características

David Beard has been drawn to short fiction throughout his very literary life.With Dora’s Curse and Other Stories he pulls together a collection of overa dozen of his favourites.In the cover story, a tribute to James Joyce set in Paris, Dora, a devotedmother, places a curse upon Jack, her profligate husband. In “The StoryThat Couldn’t Be Told” the narrator finds himself drawn to memories andto stories: and a story within a story within the story itself. In a small town inAustralia, “The Three Sisters”—Larry, known as Laura, Max known asMaxine and Virgil known as Virgie—use their budding talent to make anoutrageous impression on the locals. Meanwhile in Toronto at the“Crossroads” of two major downtown streets, sisters Faith and Honor havefallen for the same handsome man.Dora’s Curse and Other Stories is a delightful potpourri of tales, long andshort, some humourous, some sad, all touching on the foibles and fantasiesof its collection of colourful characters.
