Her daughter went to study with Montreal's Cirque du Soleil and Denise spent the next twenty years as a Montrealer. Roig wrote professionally for twenty years before publishing her first short-story collection. She also taught magazine writing and editing at Concordia University and story-writing for more than a decade in Quebec high schools. She has published three collections of critically acclaimed short stories -- A Quiet Night and a Perfect End, Any Day Now, and Brilliant, as well as the delectable non-fiction memoir Butter Cream: A Year in a Montreal Pastry School. After three years freelance writing for The National newspaper in Abu Dhabi, Roig now makes her home in Hamilton, Ontario.показать меньше
