August pick -- Past Canada Reads Winner

Hey All,

It turns out we have read more than half of the past Canada Reads winners lists so I've chosen one that is a little more obscure but seems intriguing and well reviewed.

Its called Rockbound by Frank Parker Day. It may not be widely in print so let me know if its hard to find. I did check and there are stores who have it. It was re-published in 1989.

Cheers

Absolutely Perfect!

Thanks Carolyn and Marc for hosting a magical evening on your deck. The meal and the atmosphere couldn't have been any better. And there was cake!

We had a wonderful discussion with Terry Fallis about his book "The Best Laid Plans." Terry was exceedingly gratious as he answered our questions and read a passage from his novel. He talked about his love of language and the political system, about finding time to wirte and how he structured his book. We found out that he, like us also really enjoyed "A Prayer for Owen Meaney." He is working on book #3 which will feature a PR flack.
