The brilliant debut novel by Helen Weinzweig, one of the first feminist writers in Canada and the awardwinning author of Basic Black With Pearls.In Helen Weinzweigs brilliant debut novel, a wedding reception becomes a gothic dream. The bride is not all she seems and there is something ambiguous about the groom and just about everyone else at the surreal and strangely moving wedding.Like a piece of music, Passing Ceremony is composed of brief, suggestive fragments that grow into a tightly integrated whole. There are bits of real and imagined conversation polite dialogues that slide into mad comic banality and scenes that could be quiet nightmares out of Borges. A satire and a rueful meditation on the ways people hurt one another, Weinzweig gives us a world suspended in time, an uneasy territory of the soul, which we all inhabit.This edition features a new introduction by Jim Polk.
