Enter now to win tickets for you and a guest to see
Kate Taylor, Steven Heighton and Alissa York in Toronto!
| |
Critics across the country are in love with these three writers:
|
"Kate Taylor’s new novel, [A Man in Uniform], is a bracing reminder that we dare not have blind faith in our leaders to defend our most cherished rights and freedoms.... Taylor's engaging novel, in creating a detailed historical world, reminds us of that ever-present danger. One of the strengths of this historical novel is the characterization of Dubon. His reticence to become involved with Dreyfus, and the way he is nevertheless irretrievably drawn into the affair by his own desires and dormant ideals, is handled with supreme skill."
— The Globe and Mail

 |
"A truly exceptional novel . . . Every Lost Country will be cherished for its characters, who are numerous, challenging and deeply alive; for its precise and beautiful language; and for its ambitious (and successful) effort to grapple with issues that are central to the way we live in a world of ever-increasing moral ambiguity."
— The Walrus Blog
|  |
"One of [Fauna's] strengths is the way York turns her gaze from the human world to the world of Toronto’s skunks, coyotes, raccoons and squirrels. . . . Even as she brings animals to life with her writing, she is clear about the terrible toll taken by everything from cars, to skyscraper windows, to live electrical wires."
— Winnipeg Free Press |
