Already highly-acclaimed as a poet and short-story writer, "The
Shadow Boxer" announces Steven Heighton's arrival as a major new
novelist on the Canadian literary scene. Intricately patterned and
multi-layered, this is the story of Sevigne Torrins, poet and
boxer, who sets off into the world to make it, and whose romantic
and professional misadventures take him as far as Egypt before he
finds his way back to the Great Lakes. But the classic writerly
dream that Sevigne pursues turns out in practice to have a
different and darker reality than any he had foreseen. Haunting and
splendidly evocative, this is a passionate love story about the
power of dreams and regret.
