Seeing You Home is a poignant collection of interconnected short stories that navigate love, loss, and the quiet search for meaning in the wake of tragedy. In the sterile halls of Winnipeg’s St. Boniface Hospital, Clare watches her husband, Richard, battle cancer. When his cellphone is stolen, she embarks on a restless search, tracking its signal through the city—grasping at something tangible as everything familiar slips away. Tracing the threads of Clare and Richard's relationship—from the exhilaration of their first meeting to the raw ache of his absence, Seeing You Home is an intimate portrait of devotion, grief, and the impossible task of finding a way forward.
Catherine Hunter is a poet and novelist from Winnipeg. Her work includes four poetry collections, the novel After Light, the novella In the First Early Days of My Death, and three mystery novels. Her writing has won several prizes and honours, and her latest poetry collection, St. Boniface Elegies, was shortlisted for the Governor General's Literary Award. For 30 years, Catherine enjoyed the best job in the world, teaching creative writing at the University of Winnipeg, and she is now enjoying retirement.
