On Starlight: Literary Brunch

Richard Wagamese divined the secrets of human scars and knew that broken people are the strangest and most extraordinary people of all.

Louise Erdrich, New York Times

Join us at Metropolitain Brasserie for a delicious brunch and a conversation with the CBC’s Shelagh Rogers in honour of the publication of Starlight, the final novel from Richard Wagamese, the bestselling and beloved author of Indian Horse and Medicine Walk. 

 

Starlight centres on an abused woman on the run who finds refuge on a farm owned by an Indigenous man with wounds of his own. A profoundly moving novel about the redemptive power of love, mercy, and compassion—and the land's ability to heal us. 

 

Each ticket includes: a tasty meal, good company, great conversation and a copy of Starlight!
