Two couples, tenuously linked to each other by classroom acquaintance, are fraught with anxiety and uncertainty about their futures—and lovers—as they enter their last semester of university. Describing the lives of four Montrealers over a tumultuous period of mere weeks, Juggernaut gives us leave to watch them interact, live, love and grow, as they prepare to graduate from university and tear into the “real” world."

Published by Sweet Baby Jenkins Press.

Review

Fresh, rich, and strikingly creative in style, Juggernaut is a rare feast of a novel from an emerging author of uncommon talent. Through a painstakingly developed aesthetic, Michel Semienchuk has created a novel placed firmly and unmistakably in the urban culture and ambiance of Montreal. His gift for dialogue, ability to impart complex emotions and feeling, and charming knack for showing us the beautiful nooks and crannies of Canada’s European city all help to make Juggernaut an incredible read."
