Finalist, City of Vancouver Book Prize
A blackly comic new novel from Vancouver author Grant Buday, based on his eight glorious years working in a mass production bakery. Dickensian in magnitude, White Lung is a sardonic portrait of B.C.’s racial conflicts and chaotic economy.
Praise for White Lung:
"a rollicking black comedy of errors with a host of unforgettable characters" (Quill & Quire, starred review)
"rarely has there been a novel as astute about life on the punch clock" (The Globe and Mail)
"mordantly funny" (The National Post)
