For Montrealers, the liberal use of local landmarks and street names helps contribute to the impression that we've been here before; over the course of the collection, he attends parties on Clark Street, peruses record stores on Ste. Catherine's, and recalls childhood trips to the Fairview centre in Pointe-Claire and Les Galeries d'Anjou. But the sense of paramnesia goes beyond place names that exist on a map. Kessaris manages to convey a sense of shared history through the prose itself, bringing the Montreal immigrant experience to life with wry humour and painstaking attention to detail.
