The Ottawa Writer's Festival celebrates its spring edition from April 28 to May 3rd. Today, they present Clark Blaise.

The Meagre Tarmac is master storywriter Clark Blaise’s first new collection of short fiction in nearly two decades. A suite of linked stories about the trials and tribulations of several generations of Indo-Americans, these are stories of great literary and sociological import. Grappling with the changing nature of race relations in post 9-11 America and the spectre (and reality) of terrorism, The Meagre Tarmac is vintage Blaise. Come out for a taste of the new collection and an in-depth conversation on the craft of story writing.
