Short Films - Paperback

by Tom Abray (Author)

Edward Tilman wants to write a novel about a filmmaker, but he doesn't know enough about making movies. His research launches him on a creative adventure that strains his family bonds, stalls his career and lures him to other countries--toting a camera bag and a laptop computer.

Tom Abray's short story collection, Pollen, was nominated for the Quebec Writer's Federation Fiction Award, as well as the Relit Award. The Montreal Review of Books observed that Abray's novel Where I Wanted to Be "consistently teeters on the edge of a grand dénouement". This precarious edge runs like an existential faultline through Abray's fiction.
