About this listen

Bounty is a collection of short stories that explores the lives of characters who have spent a significant portion of their lives in the fictional small town Bounty. The stories consider how small-town ideologies impede personal growth and impose a rigid social code onto its citizens.

Bounty is a manuscript of short fiction that focuses on Bounty, a fictional Saskatchewan town. It is the archetypal small town whose residents embody small-town characteristics, such as strong work ethic and resilience in the face of immense obstacles, along with the less favorable attitudes of xenophobia and intransigence. The stories explore how characters’ actions are always tied to their cultural background, demonstrating how their values and beliefs have been informed by a small town ethos.
