FICTION
The Milk Chicken Bomb
by Andrew Wedderburn
(Coach House Books, 298 pages, $21.95 softcover)
"Funny, sweet and odd," is how one reviewer described this first novel by Andrew Wedderburn of Calgary. That pretty much hits the mark.
The tale is told by "the kid," a 10-year-old in an rural Alberta town. If he has a name, we never learn it. Ditto for information about his parents.
