![]() ![]() Thanks so much for the interview, Dominik. These fifteen supercharged all-new tales reimagine Canadian historical events, explore alternate Canadas, and gather inspiration from the northern landscape to make us wonder: what if history had gone a different way?Įxperience steam-powered buffalo women roaming the plains join extraordinary men and women striking out on their own or striving to build communities marvel as giant rampaging spirits are thwarted by a miniscule timepiece cringe when a great clock chimes and the Seven O’Clock Man appears to terrorize a village in Quebec witness a Maritime scientist develop a deadly weapon that could change the course of the American Civil War.Īnachronistic technologies, retro-futuristic inventions, alternative history, fantasy, horror, historical fiction, and other branches of speculative fiction all culminate in this uniquely Canadian search for identity. Welcome to an alternate Canada, where steam technology and the wonders and horrors of the mechanical age have reshaped the past into something both wholly familiar yet compellingly different. To set this up, I include the back-cover blurb: ![]() Exile Editions is launching Clockwork Canada this month and I wanted to chat with Dominik about his intriguing vision behind this anthology. ![]() Dominik is best known as a poet and writer, but also for his editorial work with the Ann and Jeff VanderMeer and Saga Press. In December, Black Gate editor John O’Neill scooped the world with the cover of Clockwork Canada, Dominik Parisien’s newest offering as an anthologist. ![]()
