Great multi-book column. The observation about Best Canadian Essays 2026 leaning too heavily into grievance and gloom feels spot-on, especially that line about whther Atwood's dystopias poisoned a generation. Sometimes the craft of the essay gets buried under all that self-examination. The Greene dream diary bit is fascinating tho, especialy the talking tabby pricing her kills at 42 francs.
