This week on the Speakeasy podcast we have a special treat for listeners. Monique Lahaie, a book enthusiast and blogger sits down with Michael Christie, author of Greenwood.
The book is a multigenerational family story, in which the unexpected legacies of a remote island off the coast of British Columbia will link the fates of five people over a hundred years. Cloud Atlas meets Barkskins in this ingenious nested-ring epic set against the devastation of the natural world.
Among other accolades, it was: Longlisted for the Scotiabank Giller Prize, Winner of the Arthur Ellis Award for Best Novel, Finalist for The BC Book Awards, Finalist for The Evergreen Award, An Indie Next Pick, Named one of CBC's best books of 2019.
