<p>A Vintage Tales Book.<br />
<br />
Graduating from high school in a small Canadian town, you are immediately faced with two stark choices: leave or stay. <strong>Country of Cold</strong> follows the stories of a disparate group of Dunsmuir, Manitoba鈥檚 class of 1980, most of whom leave, imagining that life happens elsewhere. They flee to the freedom of the big cities of the world and the far corners of Canada, but many end up feeling rootless and alone, whether as a physician in an Arctic Inuit community, a temporary boyfriend in Paris, or a student in the McGill Ghetto. The characters attempt to unravel the impossible puzzles of adulthood -- searching for answers by hurtling over falls in a barrel, building a boat to escape a teen-daughter-gone-bad, or embarking on an unlikely affair with a two-bit wrestler. <br />

Kevin Patterson won international accolades for his wonderfully observed and moving memoir, <strong>The Water in Between</strong>. This fiction debut confirms him as a major new literary talent.<br />
