What is Shinny's Girls and Other Stories [braille] about?
<p>While Mary Burns is a writer of exceptional talent in the 'social-realism' school, <i>Shinnyâs Girls</i> is a collection of stories which are more than just a 'good read.' All of the stories in this collection are about mothers and daughters, written from a sensitive and perceptive 'post-feminist' point of view, examining the lives of the fictional characters in a way which is neither determined by, nor a reaction to, male consciousness or perceptions. These stories all re-examine the myths of mother-daughter relationships, both in the classical sense of 'myth' (Gaia / Demeter / Persephone) and in the modern sense of 'myth' (social lies about relationships).</p><p>Mary Burnsâs stories have been published in magazines throughout North America, as well as broadcast on the CBC and the BBC.</p>
