"The context is Summer 2017, Vancouver, British Columbia, where economic imperatives are making space less and less accessible to lower-income individuals. The Rental Crisis is intensifying, ravenous real-estate development is thriving, and there is a provincial-wide forest fire emergency, which blankets the city in smoke. The protagonist, Dylan Levett, is a recent university graduate being "renovicted" from his rent-controlled apartment, the central point of view of the story. Notice is a Kafka-esque story about a man caught in the gears of a bureaucracy, a spiral-down, bad-to-worse kind of story. Socially relevant, this is a funhouse mirror held up to Vancouver; a working-class story; proletarian literature that stands apart for its composite of literary techniques. Overall, Notice focusses on displacement and petty frustration with a documentary sensibility on an original and topical scenario."--
