Description

Telescope is a story cycle about Lawrence Teitel, the protagonist of Living Room (Boheme Press, 2001). The collection deals with seeing distances: above all, the growing distancing of Lawrence's family as they cope with new challenges and Lawrence's own maturation, physical and spiritual. The cycle is made up of nine stories, each covering a different stage in Lawrence's development after his family has moved from their old neighbourhood in Montreal to a somewhat wealthier suburb, Ville St. Laurent.

An interesting set of stories with interesting characters, especially the main character Lawrence. I found perspectives mostly interesting. I also learned a bit about Montreal and how it was there in the 1960s.

I really appreciate the review copy in exchange for an honest review!!
