Terence Young
November 26th, 2025
A profound meditation on regret, resilience and the fragile beauty of human connection forms the heart of Give Us This Day (Signature Editions $21.95), a new collection of short fiction by Terence Young. The stories explore the weight of the past through a kaleidoscope of voices and styles, capturing the quiet reckonings of everyday existence. His subjects range from retired grandparents thrust into unexpected childcare and young labourers adrift in mines and road crews to teachers struggling to find meaning and couples at a crossroads. Young is a prolific author who recently retired from teaching English and creative writing at St. Michaels University School and is a co-founder of The Claremont Review, an international literary journal for young writers. In 2008, he was awarded the Prime Minister’s Award for Teaching Excellence. 9781773241616
