 PATH OF TOTALITY - Audrey Thomas - Penguin Books   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
In this collection, which she selected herself from six published volumes spanning thirty-five years, the themes that recur in her work — familial devotion, romantic love and the elusive quest for fulfillment — radiate from the whole and resonate all the more deeply.
With a finely tuned and insatiable ear for language and an inherent sense of risk, Thomas examines themes of love and connectedness between fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, lovers, friends and strangers.
Explorers all, be it on foreign soil or under their own roofs, they attempt to navigate the complex undercurrents of their world, all the while seeking to understand and to be understood.

 Review | Tattycoram by Audrey Thomas
Metafiction is not that new a fiction style but Thomas has added some touches of her own to give it a new spin.
Loosely defined as a self conscious style of writing that always reminds the reader he/she is reading fiction, metafiction continually draws attention to itself through devices like appearances of the author, a conflict between the writer and the reader, or characters suddenly veering out of the author's control.
Audrey Thomas, who has been called one of the country's best writers by none else than Margaret Atwood, continues to challenge as well as to entertain.

 Elisabeth Harvor Reviews: Graven Images by Audrey Thomas   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Thomas is not a very introspective writer, or at least not often.
But the effect that this preference for the surface has on the story that Graven Images is trying to tell is unfortunate, since it has a tendency to make the book seem somewhat trivial.
The chunky shadow of the traveller's notebook often falls across the novel as well, and it's also often clear that Thomas can't resist the temptation to collage even this fractured material, jazz it up.

Audrey Thomas and Daphne Marlatt are contemporary Anglo-Saxon Canadian writers whose work has been extensively analyzed within the field of feminist literary theory.
Although all three authors write metafictions that challenge literary realism and dominant views of gender, the forms of their counter-narratives vary.
In her novel Intertidal Life, Thomas traces the disintegration of an identity through narrative devices that unearth ruptures and contradictions in stories of gender.

 Vetting cuts closet clutter | The San Diego Union-Tribune
Sports equipment: Don't waste space with skis, tennis rackets and golf club; keep them under the bed, in the garage, or in the storage room, where they're also less likely to get banged around.
Luggage: Unless you're a very frequent flier, keeping luggage in the closet is a waste, says Audrey Thomas, author of the upcoming "The Road Called Chaos" and an organizing consultant based in Minneapolis.
Consider filling it with smaller items (e.g., travel totes and makeup bags), and put it wherever you might put the sports equipment.
