Dina Del Bucchia takes celebrities very personally—maybe too personally. What would you do if you met Lindsay Lohan in a Walmart parking lot? James Franco in a thrift shop? The Olsen twins behind a dumpster? Blind Items puts you in contact with celebrities in the ways you’ve always dreamed. These hypermodern confessional poems are funny, strange, and very, very sexy. In this, her second collection, Del Bucchia tears down the fourth wall of tabloid journalism with her teeth.

His books have been nominated for Crime Writers of Canada Arthur Ellis Awards, Saskatchewan Book Awards, a ReLit award, Lambda Literary Awards, with Flight of Aquavit awarded the Lambda Literary Award for Best Men’s Mystery, making Bidulka the first Canadian to win in that category.

In 2003, Quill & Quire described Bidulka’s first book, Amuse Bouche: A Russell Quant Mystery, as “…an effervescent first novel that is much like the tasty French hors d’oeuvres from which it takes its name”, earning Bidulka a nomination for the Crime Writers of Canada Arthur Ellis Award. In addition to the beloved Russell Quant mystery series, Bidulka has written two books following the adventures of Adam Saint, a tough-as-nails, luxury loving, Disaster Recovery Agent. In 2016 Bidulka published his first stand-alone suspense novel, Set Free, with Kirkus Reviews saying: “The countless plot twists are exhilarating, with gasp-inducing drama and flatly startling story turns.” He returns in 2022 with his Adult Fiction/Mystery novel, Going to Beautiful. Anthony has toured extensively in both Canada and the United States. A great believer in community involvement, he has been on the boards of local, national, and international organizations. He was recently inducted to the University of Saskatchewan College of Education Wall of Honour, received the University of Saskatchewan College of Arts and Science Alumni of Influence Award, the Nation Builders Award, and named Citizen of the Year for his home city of Saskatoon, SK.
