Rod Carley is the award-winning Author of 4 books: A Master of Will, Kinmount, Grin Reaping, and his newest book, Ruff, which was long-listed for the Leacock Medal of Humour and the silver medal winner for best European fiction from and Independent Publisher. Today’s discussion focusses on Ruff, which is a retelling of a period in William Shakespeare’s life, and some of the events going on around him. Rod is also on the organizing committee for the St Lawrence Writers Festival, happening in September in Brockville,Ontario. Previously we had Michael Parkes on, also on the committee, to discuss the festival. We touch on it briefly here. Rod is also an avid Shakespeare fan and student, who’s worked as an actor, director and producer of various productions—one particular production that hasn’t happened yet is an adaptation of Julius Caesar reimagined surrounding the events of the October Crisis and the FLQ, which we discuss in the third part.
