The new reader’s guide edition of Shauna Singh Baldwin’s literary debut features the fifteen stories from the original collection, an interview with the author, an original afterword, and her suggested reading list. When Shauna Singh Baldwin’s debut collection was first published in 1996, it took readers by storm. Reviewers discovered a new voice; listeners tuned in to the stories on CBC Radio. Since then, Baldwin has written two award-winning novels and, in 2007, a second story collection, We Are Not in Pakistan. Dramatizing the lives of Indian women from 1919 to the present, from India to North America, Shauna Singh Baldwin travels from the intimate sphere of family to the wasteland of office and university.

Ann Lee, founder of the Shakers, is one of the first notable women inventors- a true mother of invention. She lived a rough but devoted life. She invented many tools, devices, and items ( such as flat brooms, clothes pins, rocking chairs, an early computer, and possibly the circular saw). Many of her inventions still enhance our lives today.
