Canada Also Reads: And the winner is...

Canada Also Reads: And the winner is...

Well, not Steve Zipp. Sadly for friend of the blog Steve (but hey, honour to be nominated, am I right, folks?), his novel Yellowknife was not the winner of the National Post's Canada Also Reads competition.

No, instead it was given to another quality offering, Jessica Grant's Come, Thou Tortoise.

My congrats go out to Miss Grant and to the rest of the nominees, all worthy reads.

And go find a copy of Yellowknife, it is a gloriously weird piece of Canadian magic realism absurdist satire, or something like that. Great novel, anyway.
