This well written novel has everything: Chinese communist struggle sessions, classical music, Chairman Mao’s Cultural Revolution, the love of family, and so much more. A dense and fascinated read. #GGBooks. I listened to Bach’s Goldberg Variations as I read.

I really loved Hey, Good Luck Out There but it’s such a heavy, heavy book. I think I need to take a break before starting her second. I’m sure it’s as brilliant. #canlit

Hey #canlit pals!
A beaver stands beside a stack of books. A cartoon-style talk bubble has the beaver saying: "Join our Canadian Fiction showcase!" Dark red text at the bottom says: "Call for authors", and there are matching red maple leaves scattered around the beaver.
