About this title

Synopsis

Having been a contributing reviewer for The Globe and Mail for more than twenty years, T.F. Rigelhof knows good literature. Hooked on Canadian Books is a conversational survey of the novels published since 1984 he deems to be "the good, the better, and the best." In addition to his readings of well-known Canadian writers, he brings the work of newer and lesser-known voices to more deserving attention, relates personal moments shared with his picks, details his relationship with the Montreal bookstore that got him hooked in the first place, all while defending Canadian literature from stereotypes, celebrating its successes, and promoting its future. Perfect for book clubs.

He has served as a juror for the Governor General's Literary Awards, the QSPELL Literary Awards, the Saskatchewan Book Awards, the Alberta Book Awards, the Books in Canada/Amazon First Novel Award and the Danuta Gleed Literary Prize.
