Coach House Books (paperback, 2014)

Publisher Marketing: Rachel Zolf's fifth book assembles a pirate score of error-ridden historical and current documents -- missionary narratives, immigration pamphlets, settler writings -- to decry the ongoing violence of Canadian colonialism. It stars Janey Settler-Invader, a foul-mouthed mutant slouching toward the Red River Colony, along with a host of cacophonous, carnivalesque appropriations.
