A woman of means A tough urban cookie confronts disaster after disaster Cordelia Strube's latest is a bright, bold slalom so welcome From the Toronto Star, August 1, 2004 Blind Night by Cordelia Strube, Thomas Allen, 309 pages, $32.95 A mea culpa. A few months ago, I wrote an essay for another newspaper about the lack of rouse and rabble in the sheaf of spring books. It appears the premise of my article was somewhat askew. Was it wrong of me to yearn for, let's say, a funny, former drug addict who finds herself stuck in a low-rent motel, surrounded by fringe-dwelling urban creatures? No. My mistake was to seek succor in the CanLit hip-oisie. Instead, I should have been looking for a 40-something mom named Cordelia Strube. My only excuse for not noticing Blind Night sooner is its off-putting cover (I know, never judge, blah blah), which to my cynical eye advertised a tale of inner torment. I imagined reading such passages as: "My evaporated tears. Useless moisture. In the distance, a moose warbled." Instead

6. Dr. Kalbfleisch & The Chicken Restaurant Review of Dr. Kalbfleisch and the Chicken Restaurant from the Montreal Mirror. http://www.montrealmirror.com/ARCHIVES/1997/101697/book.html

Natural born chicken by JULIET WATERS After I'd finished reading We should have sympathy for him. Kalbfleisch is a concentration camp survivor whose parents did not survive. But there's nothing noble about this complacent, mean, cheap man. It's not so much that he's tyrannicaldeep down he's a pretty apathetic tyrant. In fact, he doesn't seem to really care about anything beyond why Beth, the waitress with the nice breasts, doesn't smile enough. He's proof that surviving tragedy is no guarantee of character. On the other hand, Raymond, who manages Chez Simon, is proof that the human spirit can survive a lot. The chicken restaurant isn't Auschwitz, but it's still a pretty soul-corroding place. There's something strangely archetypal about Dr. Kalbfleisch. I say strangely, because there isn't much room for symbolism in the hyper-realist world that Strube creates. But in the existential microcosm of Chez Simon, Dr. Kalbfleisch could be a stand-in for the Almighty Disinterested Creator, a god who invented free will as a way of ultimately avoiding responsibility. It's been four years since I called Strube's first novel

FFWD Weekly Trying to Find Out What Happens with Cordelia Strube by Patrick Rengger Cordelia Strube is a curious woman. Which is not to say that she is strange or surprising, or at least not only. She is curious about things. It's why she writes - and why she writes the way she does. "I want to find out what happens," says the 36-year-old author, "and I like to ask questions," which makes the task of interviewing her somewhat different, since she asks as many questions as she answers. The Governor General's Award for fiction nominee and author of "Teaching Pigs to Sing" and, most recently, "Dr. Kalbfleisch and the Chicken Restaurant" did not, however, start out as a writer, but an actress. And those roots are evident in the writers she cites as influences on her own work, such as Edward Albee, David Mamet and Harold Pinter. They are writers who, like her, use a spare, pared-down style of writing, or as Strube puts it, "They are big in using not many words, but the words are key." They are also all famous for the sinuous strength of their dialogue, a feature of Strube's own work that is often regarded as her most powerful element. The conversations in her books crackle with biting insight as her characters struggle to survive in the world she creates for them.

Book Reviews April 19, 2007 email print Planet Reese: A Novel by Cordelia Strube By John Burns By Cordelia Strube. Dundurn Press, 364 pp, $21.99, softcover After Reese Larkin is dumped by his wife–but before he unloads his final enviro-rant on the Christian-fundie clients at work–he sneaks into his former house to liberate the family hamster. Back in his mildewy basement suite (the one under the topless waitress with the Fred Astaire preoccupation), Reese lets the hamster out of its cage. Scrabbling free, it heads immediately for the trash. At the novel's start, Reese is like that hamster, caught up on his wheel, spinning through the same bleak facts of climate change, indifference to suffering, and rampant materialism. In a last-ditch effort to prove to his estranged wife that he can live and let live, he agrees to a cruise holiday. But how can he change when he can't still the inner voices that remind him of "the effect twenty-five hundred passengers defecating into the ocean was having on the fish below"? Deprived of his kids and increasingly despairing of humanity's willingness to save itself, Reese ends up taking the hamster's solution and heading for the trash, swapping vegan snacks for Zellers specials and–gasp–even littering.

var dmWorkPath = "/scripts/"; MetaxuCafe log-in register Home ... Roundtable Planet Reese, by Cordelia Strube tags: Book review Cordelia Strube Manitoba Planet Reese ... Winnipeg Free Press Cordelia Strube is a realist, in the most extreme sense. Not for her the provincial world of traditional CanLit, where horrific events classically occur through the gauzy mist of nostalgia, in a tiny Newfoundland community where the inhabitants are untouched by world events. Strube rejects this cliché, embracing Canada as it exists in all its healthcare fiascos, climate change, and shortsighted government policies. Her Canada is one overrun by “doughy cretins, unable to see beyond their own greed and consumption,” and after six novels, Strube holds claim to being a premier purveyor of feel-bad Canadian literature. Planet Reese continues this trend, beginning with its protagonist Reese Larkin at the lowest depths of despair, and seeing how much more punishment one man can take. It is more or less a retelling of the Book of Job, except far funnier, and holy salvation at tale’s end appears exceedingly unlikely. Reese is an environmentalist beset on a multitude of fronts by the plagues of the 21st century. His wife has taken their children, and only communicates through a social worker. In order to prove he can hold down a ‘real’ job, he has taken a position with a marketing/phone centre, “a thankless, repulsive job and only the desperate or truly naïve can stand it, and even they never last.”

This smart, sometimes disturbing story is dripping with drama. Scenes that describe McKenna driving her daughter as her sight deteriorates are tension-packed. And when McKenna purchases a baseball bat, we never know who's going to end up on the other end of it. But Strube's dry humour makes the intensity bearable, and she creates full characters whose desperation always makes sense. McKenna, a former drug addict with unresolved anger issues and a fierce and beautiful love for her daughter, is a vivid working-class hero.

20. PLANET REESE ~ By Cordelia Strube Canada in Afghanistan is Peter Pigott Planet Reese is cordelia strube s seventh novel about a former Greenpeace crusader turned marketeer, http://www.dundurn.com/planetreese/

PLANET REESE Home Excerpt Reviews Fun Stuff Planet Reese In her seventh novel, acclaimed author Cordelia Strube grabs readers by the neuroses with a dark and wickedly funny story about Reese, a former Greenpeace crusader turned "for-profit" marketeer, who battles against a world-gone-mad in a desperate attempt to regain a life and a family that has drifted away from him. As chaos turns into calamity, Reese tries in vain to keep both feet on a planet that seems unfit for anyone with an inner activist or anyone struggling to shut that inner activist up. Engaging, enlightening, and always entertaining, Planet Reese is an intensely personal and endearing tale of a man holding onto his sanity against all odds in an increasingly unhinged world. About the Author Cordelia Strube is an accomplished playwright and the author of six critically acclaimed novels. Her first novel, Alex and Zee , was shortlisted for the W.H. Smith / Books in Canada First Novel Award, and her third novel, Teaching Pigs to Sing , was nominated for the Governor General's Award.
