<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"A novel about a man understanding life through his visits to small claims court."--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Shortlisted for the 2018 ReLit Award</strong></p><br><p>In this new novel by ReLit award-winning, Leacock-nominated writer <br>Andrew Kaufman, the narrator eschews the usual avenues of mid-life <br>crisis-sportscars, mistresses-and instead seeks meaning in the least <br>likely of places: small claims court. There, he struggles to understand <br>what's gone wrong in his marriage, his career as a writer, and his <br>relationship with his two young children.</p><br><p>With small observations, subtle investigations, and the pursuit of <br>small-scale justice, he attempts to rebuild his faith in humanity <br>through the framework of a court system that won't let you sue for <br>damages above twenty thousand dollars. <i>Small Claims</i> is a big dose of tenderness for the frailties of the heart.</p><br><p>"[Kaufman's] prose is so refreshingly heartfelt and natural that he makes it easy to believe."<b>--<i>The Coast</i></b></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"There are very few Canadian authors, other than Sheila Heti, Yann <br>Martel and occasionally Atwood, willing to submerge that deeply into <br>magic... His prose is so refreshingly heartfelt and natural that he makes <br>it easy to believe."<b>--<i>The Coast</i></b></p><p>"Kaufman has crafted a special hellscape of mundane middle-age."<b>--<i>National Post</i></b></p>-- "National Post"<br>
