Coteau Books calls for short stories

Coteau Books is planning to publish an anthology of short stories called "Two Lands, One Heart" (working title). This anthology will include 10 stories by Canadian writers of Ukrainian heritage and 10 stories by writers from Ukraine and will be co-published with a Ukrainian publisher, with editions in both languages. The Canadian edition will appear in the fall of 1998.

The editor for the Canadian stories is Janice Kulyk Keefer, Canadian novelist, short story writer and scholar, whose last book, "The Green Library," is partly set in Kyiv. Solomea Pavlychko, Ukrainian scholar and editor, author of "Letters from Kyiv," has already selected the 10 stories from Ukraine.

Canadian writers of Ukrainian heritage are welcome to submit up to two short stories for consideration for this anthology. These stories may have appeared in journals or magazines, but must not have been previously published in books. The stories may deal with Canadian Ukrainian subject matter, but other subjects are welcome.

Stories must be postmarked no later than September 30, 1997. Please send stories along with a cover letter, a brief biographical note, and a stamped, self-addressed reply envelope to: Two Lands, Coteau Books, 401-2206 Dewdney Ave., Regina, SK S4R 1H3.
