Recenzii
"Hahnel is keenly aware of the daily suffering of life, and once in a while, of the sought-for moments of forgetfulness of a troubled place, or of a desperate, short-lived bliss. But there are no lyric flights here, the prose is unadorned, straight-forward and clear, what is unsaid often more important than what is, and her characters are on the move, often aimlessly, from one unsatisfactory situation to another, while their friends become drifters and vanish and reappear and vanish again. These are touching, gentle stories about the lives of women and girls who aren’t lucky in their beginnings or backgrounds, nor particularly wise, and yet, their stories, with their rare and tiny triumphs, resonate." —Sharon Butala, Author of Season of Fury and Wonder
"These are touching, gentle stories about the lives of women and girls who aren't lucky in their beginnings or backgrounds, nor particularly wise, and yet, their stories, with their rare and tiny triumphs, resonate."
"Vermin is a treasure from one of Alberta's bright lights."
"In these stories, Lori Hahnel reimagines the subject of love... Writing with classical dispassion, she doesn't moralize, disapprove or romanticize. Instead, she sees and selects and exposes the wilderness of the human heart."
"...part of the strength in Hahnel's often funny, occasionally sad and always intriguing collection is that they take readers in all sorts of directions."
"Vermin is an immersive collection of short stories that demonstrate a notable breadth of talented writing."
"These are well-made stories that offer convincingly conflicted characters. A hospitable, entertaining read."
"The heartache in Vermin is composed with an honesty about women's lives and how often a woman's circumstances can be buffeted by patriarchy, sexism, or a manipulative man who didn?t deserve her trust."
“After You’ve Gone vibrates with authenticity: two eras, two young women caught up in the giddy thrall of love and music and feckless men.”
These are intimate voices in Lori Hahnels stories. They draw us in with a sense of privacy and privilege. Yearning, wistful, and wise-cracking, they beg understanding, from the world and for themselves. Nothing Sacred satisfies like a late night visit with a close friend and a bottle of good wine.
This collection is a sly balancing act of yearning and humour, night cool and power pop, regret and miscreant wit.
