An Island Christmas Reader

📖 The Scoop

This season, writers seem to be finding it everywhere -- in people, in art, in a cloud or a boulder, and even in the sweetness of chocolate and the people who make it. Abode of Love, our first release of the fall season, is Kate Barlow's gripping tale about her mysterious family. Already drawing rave reviews in the UK, Abode of Love is the first insider's account of growing up within the walls of the Agapemone cult. Following hard on its heels is The Elephant Talks to God. In this new, enlarged edition of an all-time classic, Dale Estey returns with light-hearted conversations about the meaning of life between an impetuous elephant and an enigmatic god. In Bruno Bobak: The Full Palette, Bernard Riordon leads a distinguished group of writers as they examine the multi-faceted career of one of Canada's most senior artists. And in Ganongs, David Folster takes us back to the 19th century and forward to the 21st as he explores the history and future of Canada's oldest chocolatier.
