Congratulations to Winnipeg writer Miriam Toews for the excellent review of her first two books, Summer of my Amazing Luck and A Boy of Good Breeding in the New York Times.
Both books are being released in the US for the first time. Thus the fanfare.
In the same Times issue, Thomas McGuane, a favourite of mine for his superb short stories, wonderful fishing writing and lovable, uneven novels, gets the retrospective-profile treatment in relation to his new collection of stories, Gallatin Canyon.
