Homage Stories [Hardcover]

Using decades of experience as an adventurous writer/artist, who not only won a first prize for Short Fiction in 1968 (in Independent Guyana), and Canada Council Awards for contemporary painting in 1980s Toronto, Terence Roberts has combined his life experiences in the arts, and as a traveler, to produce Homage, his unique debut collection of stories. Apart from their suggestive autobiographical/fictional data, some of these startling and often hilarious stories, are exercises in the possibilities of contemporary fiction. In all, this makes Homage an exciting read on both levels of content and style. About the Author: Terence Roberts is an experienced writer whose prose and poetry appeared in the magazines Impulse: Contemporary Canadian Writers, Poetry Wales in the UK, and other literary journals in Canada, and Guyana, his birthplace. He emigrated with his parents to Toronto in 1969, and became a Canadian citizen in 1978, emerging as a key New Wave artist in the 1980s, also a TV anchor and film columnist in Independent Guyana in later years. He has resided in Toronto, Rome, Turin, Milan, Madrid, Caracas, Mexico City, Montreal, and New York City. Publisher's website: http://sbprabooks.com/TerenceRoberts
