The Hockey Sweater and Other Stories by Roch Carrier

The Hockey Sweater, the title story in this 20-story collection, has become an enduring classic: a Quebec boy and Habs fan is shipped a Toronto Maple Leafs sweater by mistake. It encapsulates everything you need to understand French and English Canada, told with humour and love. This edition features a new introduction.
He has written over fifteen novels, as well as a number of children's books, short story collections, poetry collections, and plays. From 1994 to 1997, he was the director of the Canada Council for the Arts, and from 1999 to 2004, he was the National Librarian of Canada. Carrier is an Officer of the Order of Canada and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. He currently resides in Montreal.
