Bad Endings gathers character-driven short stories rooted in Vancouver and the surrounding wild. The collection probes family ties, the unraveling of relationships, mortality and urban burnout, often steering protagonists into rivers, forests and encounters with animals.

The tone pairs wry humour and awkward irony with moments of discomfort and surprise. Magic-realist touches—when humans and animals seem to blur—add a surreal edge to scenes of reckoning and small epiphanies.

Recurring natural motifs like salmon, bees and rivers underscore the tension between city life and the natural world, while the author’s local details and sharp voice give each story a distinct emotional bite.

  • Literary short stories set in Vancouver and the wild
  • Themes: family, grief, nature, magic realism
  • Recognized for strong local voice and unexpected tonal shifts
