The Orenda {41/365}
One of my favourite radio shows, Q, hosts an annual battle of the books where 5 Canadians champion 1 book that they think 'could change the nation' and that they believe every Canadian should read. This year the debate will be held in March, so when I heard about the books that were on the list, I set myself a goal that I would have all 5 books read by the time the debates start. I read two over the holidays ("Annabel" and "Half Blood Blues" - both which were absolutely fabulous) and The Orenda is next on the list.
I had the great pleasure of hearing Joseph Boyden read the first three chapters of this book in the fall at The Eden Mills Writer's Festival. I've loved every book I've read by him and I have no doubts that this will be a great and important read.
