Synopsis:

Emulating the circuitous tales told by his mother's relatives, the Goodyears of Newfoundland, David Macfalane weaves the major events of the island's twentieth century--the ravages of tuberculosis; the great seal-hunt disaster; the bitter Confederation debate, and above all, the First World War--into his own tale of the ill-starred fortunes of his family. He brings to life a multi-generational cast of characters who are as colourful as only Newfoundlanders can be. With humour, insight, and genuine love for those heroes and charlatans, pirates and dreamers, he explores the meaning of family and the consequences of forgotten history.

About the Author: David Macfarlane is the author of the bestselling novel Summer Gone, which was shortlisted for the 1999 Giller Prize. He is a regular columnist for The Globe and Mail and has won six gold National Magazine Awards as well as a National Newspaper Award and the Author's Award for Magazine Writing.
