Book This Is My Country  What s Yours

Download or read book This Is My Country What s Yours written by Noah Richler and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2011-05-18 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2007 B.C. Award for Canadian Non-fiction A Globe and Mail Best 100 Book (2006) National Post Best Books (2006) A bold cultural portrait of contemporary Canada through the work of its most celebrated novelists, short story writers, and storytellers. Stories are the surest way to know a place, and at a time when the fabric of the country seems daily more uncertain, Noah Richler looks to our authors for evidence of the true nature of Canada. He argues why fiction matters and seeks to discover — in the extra-ordinary diversity of communities these writers represent — what stories, if any, bind us as a nation. Over two years, Richler has criss-crossed the country and interviewed close to one hundred authors — a who’s who of Canadian literature, including Wayne Johnston, Michael Crummey, Alistair MacLeod, Gil Courtemanche, Jane Urquhart, Joseph Boyden, Miriam Toews, Yann Martel, Fred Stenson, Douglas Coupland, and Rohinton Mistry — about the places and ideas that are most meaningful to their work. The result is a journey through the reality of Canada and its imagination at a critical point in the country’s evolution. Within thematic chapters he exposes our “Myths of Disappointment” and considers the stories of our native peoples, the rise of the city, and how our history as a colony shapes our society and politics even today. This Is My Country, What's Yours? is an impassioned literary travelogue and a vivid portrayal of our society, the work of Canadian authors, and the idea of writing itself. This Is My Country, What's Yours? is based on Noah Richler’s ten-part documentary of the same name originally broadcast on CBC Radio’s flagship Ideas program in spring 2005.

When a high school teacher introduced Rick Tremblay to play guitar for Monique Dinel at a talent show, they could not have imagined then that this would develop into a life-long relationship. Their high school friends couldn’t believe, even years later, this odd match up. Maybe serendipity orchestrated the whole affair, using music as bait to start their love song. Musically Yours is the soundtrack of Monique & Rick Tremblay’s life and speaks to their unbreakable bond as Young Musicians, as the Married Duo, and the Devoted Couple. A memoir of this Duet’s life in song, their love of music and their hopes in their lyrics.
