Author Lynn Coady was awarded the Giller Prize last night for her short story collection, Hellgoing. I’m encouraging everyone to read her backlist, which includes several novels with memorable characters — no one captures Maritime life like her (she was raised in Cape Breton).
Congratulations, Lynn Coady. It was a long time coming!
Last week, my life partner attended a reading by Lynn Coady at the Indigo office in Toronto, where she recieved an autographed copy of Hellgoing for my sister (the one that’s not you). Sorry dude!
