Asylum
Andre Alexis
Alexis' long-awaited new novel, centred around the personal and political ambitions to build a magnificent prison, is set in Ottawa during the Mulroney years and at a monastery in the Tuscan countryside. It follows the lives of a small group of people that includes a man whose obsessive jealousy is corroding his marriage, a professor with a roving eye that will lead him towards a personal crisis, and a woman whose family secret is hers alone to bear until her bitter and cantankerous grandmother dies.

Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life
Barbara Kingsolver
Christopher says: "Equal parts how-to manual, diary and environmental battle cry, Animal, Vegetable, Miracle is a graceful narrative recounting a year spent eating home-grown and local food. This tale of Kingsolver and her family is disarmingly entertaining, substantive yet earnest, and funny. With the insight of a journalist and the accuracy of a naturalist Kingsolver makes short work of complex topics and offers a practical vision on the ecology of local food, sustainable agriculture and the toxic logic of industrial agriculture." |
