About the Book

Risky, honest, brave, and thought-provoking, Stan Chung's Okanagan Sunday columns have delighted and engaged readers for over ten years. This is a collection of the best of his work. His topics range from mindfulness, to racism, reconciliation, and economics. Stan's work is widely recognized by readers throughout the world. His stories, essays, and memoirs are essentially Canadian, and focus on our issues and considerations. His highly acclaimed book, Global Citizen: River of Love and Other Stories is currently in its third printing. Forward by Jim Taylor, fellow columnist, author of 17 books and co-founder of Wood Lake Books. "Stan Chung's writing tears down pretence to reveal a simple honest truth in which we can see just a little bit of ourselves." Naheed Nenshi, Mayor of Calgary, AB "Stan Chung is a voice that Canada needs. His words are a beautiful gift, and a reminder that we can, and indeed should, become more than we are now." Niigaanwewidam James Sinclair, Associate Professor, Department of Native Studies, University of Manitoba. "Like a man catching his breath, Stan Chung reflects on the ordinary events that become the extraordinarily complex fabric of our lives. These stories make me grateful for the reminder to slow down and catch my own breath." Francie Greenslade, author of Shelter.
