An erratic is a rock that has been transported by a glacier, and then expelled once the glacier has melted. An erratic signifies the time and place where the glacier originated - often hundreds of miles and hundreds of years distant. Erratics hold traces of the parent bedrock, the path that the glacier traveled, and the process of deposition. They are time travelers, treasure troves, reliquaries, and rubble. Encountering an erratic is akin to encountering a piece of sculpture. They are often perched in surprising locations with an unstable or alien appearance. The material presence of an erratic is strange and mismatched to its surroundings. It is often not clear how this solitary rock arrived, alone, an anomaly. Erratics have a newness, a vulnerability, and a childlike awkwardness. They have an aura of meaning and promise and poetry that, for those of us who are not geologists, remain a mystery. Because I am an artist, I ponder what I am carrying within myself and what evidence my life will leave. This books comprises photos and drawings of dynamic landscapes and erratics I have encountered, accompanied by excerpts from journals, letters, sketchbooks, and notes. - Nina Elder

In this award-winning memoir, two sisters reckon with the convalescence and death of their outlandishly tyrannical mother and the care of their psychologically terrorized father, all relayed with dark humour and brutal honesty. When Vicki and her sister learn their mother has been hospitalized for a broken hip, they return to their parents' home in Alberta to put things back in order. Though their parents disowned them years before, the sisters now reassert themselves in the dysfunctional household: their father, undernourished and suffering from Stockholm syndrome, is unable to see that he is in danger from his outlandish and vindictive wife. Rearranging their lives to be the daughters they were never allowed to be, the sisters focus their efforts on helping their father cope with the unending manipulations of their mother, and must encounter all the characters common in the circus of caretaking--oddball nurses and home helpers; over-opinionated hospital staff who have fallen for their mother's compulsive lies--along with the pressures that come with caring for elderly loved (and sometimes unloved) ones. Set against the natural world of remotest Alberta ("in winter the cold will kill you, nothing personal"), this memoir--at once dark and hopeful--shatters precedents about grief, anger and family trauma with surprising tenderness and humour.
