“Anyone interested in the more wicked, crafty and inventive forms of Canadian writing would be well advised to spend time with McCormack.” —Toronto Star

“Boy, can Dennis Cooper find ’em! Grab Bag will grab you, all right; plain, simple, and hard.” —John Waters, filmmaker

Grab Bag is comprised of two interrelated novels, Dark Rides and Wish Book, from one of Canada’s most important young writers. Both books are set in the same small rural city, in different eras (1950s, 1930s), each characterized by McCormack’s spare and elliptical prose.
