As the month nears its end, I am wondering when we will discuss other Canadian authors, specifically Tim Wynn-Jones.
I had never read his work before attending the Halos and Hooligans Conference, Simmons College, Boston. Inspired by his witty insights to the role of literature in the 21st Century, I ran out and bought Some of the Kinder Planets. Wynn-Jones has become a favorite of mine for his clever prose
(the humorous plays on words Wynn-Jones weaves into his stories), clear plots, and sympathetic characters. I'm so glad I learned about this wonderful author.
This month's discussion has been one of the most educational ever to me, having exposed me to buried treasures, so to speak. Thanks to everyone.
