Shortlisted for the 2018 ReLit Award
In this new novel by ReLit award-winning, Leacock-nominated writer
Andrew Kaufman, the narrator eschews the usual avenues of mid-life
crisis-sportscars, mistresses-and instead seeks meaning in the least
likely of places: small claims court. There, he struggles to understand
relationship with his two young children.
With small observations, subtle investigations, and the pursuit of
small-scale justice, he attempts to rebuild his faith in humanity
through the framework of a court system that won't let you sue for
damages above twenty thousand dollars. Small Claims is a big dose of tenderness for the frailties of the heart.
[Kaufman's] prose is so refreshingly heartfelt and natural that he makes it easy to believe.--The Coast
