Product Description

Journey in real time with Steve, a burned-out Protestant minister, as he babysits his daughter's classmate Adi. Between the crowing of the school bell bookending the day, spend six hours traveling with them on the written page (or make your way to Vancouver and follow along by foot) as they explore their neighborhood, experiencing both the quotidian and fantastic. By turns haunting and humorous, The race is not to the swift is an original novel: a moving meditation on the nature of time and memory, and a playful experiment in durational realism, each second in fictional time corresponding to a second in actual time. Tu Ji Fun pushes the boundaries of what fiction can be and do in this incredibly inventive debut novel.
