Travelling Light by Peter Behrens

Travelling Light, (Canadian spelling!--and The New Yorker) my new short story collection, is being published this month by House of Anansi. You might recognize the cover photo, by Jarrod McCabe, from a series of AL posts that ran Dec 2011-Jan 2012: JM's photographic essay on his winter road trip from Montana to Massachusetts in a brand-new/old F250.  
  The first story in the book is called "Civil Wars" and you can read it here. The first Travelling Light newspaper review apeared in Friday's Toronto Star. Also a review in the May issue of Quill & Quire
  The book ought to be available this week from Canada's wonderful & crucial independent booksellers  and online from Amazon.ca and Chapters/Indigo (they both will ship orders to the US.)  Travelling Light is downloadable from iTunes
  The only SIGNED FIRST EDITIONS are available from Betsy's Sunflower in Brooklin, Maine (207) 359-5030
