The Journey Prize Anthology, in this ninth edition, brings together the finest new voices in Canadian fiction, and has established itself as the premier anthology of emerging writers in this country. This edition includes twelve exciting and wide-ranging stories. Among them: In a haunting story, an elderly woman is enveloped in the disturbance and dislocation of a physical ailment as she confronts the memory of a deep personal loss suffered decades ago; the emotional equilibrium of a family shaken when a child brings wrongful punishment upon her older sister, foreshadowing tragedy in the world war to come; in an urban tale, written in powerful, idiomatic prose, a Guyanese immigrant looks back on the trials and tribulations of his first years in Canada when he shared an apartment in Toronto with two friends; faced with the loss of her father in a tragic accident, a young girl attempts to gain control of the world by imagining she can change reality with the strength of her will; a woman vividly recreates the day of her own birth when her mother, two weeks overdue, and a group of gossipy relatives assemble for a baby shower; hidden wounds from wartime are torn open when relatives from Germany spend their vacation with family in Canada during the summer of the Munich Olympics. The co-winners of the $10,000 Journey Prize for 1997 were Gabriella Goliger for “Maladies of the Inner Ear” and Anne Simpson for “Dreaming Snow.”

For over a decade,The Journey Prize Anthologyhas been the premier showcase for Canada’s finest up-and-coming literary voices. In this eleventh edition, the anthology continues its tradition of presenting the best of Canada’s new writers. Among the twelve stories: Over the course of a long, hot summer with her invalid grandmother and a free-spirited babysitter, a young girl becomes increasingly aware of the complexities and ambiguities that lie on the other side of childhood. In a wistful tale about the enduring strength of family ties, a young Eskimo boy is determined to take on the responsibility of finding a new home for his infant brother. The sudden and unexpected death of his father prompts a man to embark on a meditative journey through his own peripatetic life. The pretensions and hypocrisies of a small town are comically brought to the surface during a Sunday Mass. After a fateful encounter, a defiant teenage girl and a solitary backwoodsman forge an uneasy life together amidst the wilderness of the Yukon. The progress of a married man’s seduction by a student is coolly observed by his wife. In a moving exploration of the power of memory and the devastating effects of Alzheimer’s, a woman tends to her now-elderly foster father. The winner of the $10,000 Journey Prize for 1999 was Alissa York for “The Back of the Bear’s Mouth.”

This is the sixteenth edition of this nationally acclaimed anthology, which has established itself as Canada’s most popular fiction anthology, presenting the best new Canadian writers from coast to coast. As well as receiving high praise every year, it is an important indicator of up-and-coming writers. Past winners include Yann Martel, Cynthia Flood, Alissa York, Kevin Armstrong, Timothy Taylor, and Jessica Grant. These writers and many others whose stories have appeared in the anthology – André Alexis, David Bergen, Dennis Bock, Terry Griggs, Elizabeth Hay, Steven Heighton, Elise Levine, Annabel Lyon, Robert McGill, Lisa Moore, Nancy Richler, Madeleine Thien, and M.G. Vassanji – have gone on to become finalists or winners of some of Canada’s most prestigious literary awards.

The winner of the $10,000 Writers’ Trust of Canada/McClelland & Stewart Journey Prize, and the journal which published the winning piece, will be announced in the spring of 2005 as part of The Writers’ Trust of Canada’s Great Literary Awards event.
