Review "timely, original and profound." Alex Good, CNQ magazine, Winter 2018Alex Good "CNQ Magazine " Product Description A genrebending retelling ofThe Odyssey,Army of theBrave and Accidentalis a modern fable: a story about relationships, parenthood, and trying to have an impact on the world told from the shifting perspectives of ten characters. A hundred years after James Joyce stitched together a version of the epic tale, Canadian writer and essayist Alex Boyd updates the story as a reflection of Canadian twentyfirstcentury culture, allowing it to take a radically different cultural snapshot. These reimaginings newly create and colour a contemporary view of modern love without compromising any of the pitfalls orexaltations.Army of the Brave and Accidentalis funny, deft, wise and poetic all at once. The epic spans major cities such as Toronto and New York and is a comingofage story, a journey, a love story and atragicomedy.
