Just Between Us with Terry Fallis, Eliza Robertson and Michael Redhill
Hosted by Carleton University’s Susan Birkwood
Redhill has written a mind-blowing brainteaser of a novel with plot twists worthy of David Lynch. A brilliant tribute to those among us whose brains are wired differently.
Three authors probe the connections between us and how our relationships with the past–and with each other–can come to define who we become and our place in the world.
From Terry Fallis the two-time winner of the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour, and author of The Best Laid Plans, comes One Brother Shy, a story about a man tormented by an event from his youth, and the journey he finds himself on to heal and to learn who he is.
Unfolding between the wild freedoms of British Columbia and the glittering beaches of California, Eliza Robertson’s Demi-Gods explores a girl’s attempt to forge a path of her own choosing in a world where female independence is suspect.
From award-winning and bestselling author Michael Redhill comes Bellevue Square, a darkly comic literary thriller about a woman who fears for her sanity--and then her life--when she learns that her doppelganger has appeared in a local park.
