In this collection of short stories, Toronto's F G Paci brings the art of gamesmanship to a new level. Never has sport as a metaphor for life's battles been more evident or more subtly employed to bring out the ecstasy and pain of playing to win.

F.G. Paci is the author of 13 novels and 2 collections of short stories. He is best known for 'Black Madonna', a novel that deals with feminist issues and the immigrant experience in Canada. His eighth novel in his BLACK BLOOD series was 'The Son' (Oberon, 2011). The last two novels in the series remain to be published. His two collections of short stories were published by Guernica: 'Playing to Win' (2012) and 'Talk About God' (2016).
