“First, I’ll tell about the robbery our parents committed. Then the murders, which happened later.” So begins Canada, the unforgettable story of Dell Parsons, a young man forced by catastrophic circumstances to reconcile himself to a world rendered unrecognizable. In this brilliant novel, set largely in Saskatchewan, Richard Ford has created a masterwork. Haunting and spectacular in vision, …rich with emotional clarity and lyrical precision, and an acute sense of the grandeur of living”.
Richard Ford is the only writer ever to win both the Pulitzer Prize and Pen/Faulkner Award for a single novel “Independence Day”, the second book in his acclaimed Bascombe Trilogy.
