At the Risk of Sounding is a wide-ranging collection of essays on writers such as Alice Munro, bpNichol and Antonin Artaud; on artists such as Barbara Caruso and Kim Ondaatje; and on fillm directors such as Margarethe von Trotta and Robert Lepage. The essays are personal, yet not "subjective." Their loyalty to the search for truth and the rigour of the writing have a strength of examination that is fearless, the hallmark of the essay form at its best. /// Lola Lemire Tostevin, poet, novelist and essayist, is presently preparing a biography of the artist, filmmaker, photographer and master gardener, Kim Ondaatje.

In the fourteen speculative fictions that comprise Infinite Anatomies, Richard Truhlar creates and explores dark landscapes of the imagination: each story leads us into the depths of the human psyche. Whether a scientific experiment in essential life force gone horribly wrong, an airplane crashing into another time dimension, or the moving story of an iconic man with no memory who reads every day to the people of a dystopian future, Truhlar creates haunting, powerful characters and suspenseful narratives of the soul's night that twist with all the flavours of curiosity and wonder. RICHARD TRUHLAR is the author of eight books of fictions and poetry: Terminal Intelligence, The Hollow and other fictions, The Pitch, Dynamite in the Lung, Figures in Paper Time, Utensile Paradise, Parisian Novels, and A Porcelain Cup Placed There, as well as a number of chapbooks, and numerous publications in national and international anthologies and periodicals.
