Authors A-Z Laurence Margaret A Bird in the House Margaret Laurence June 1993 Paperback Book Description A Bird in the House is a series of eight interconnected short stories narrated by Vanessa MacLeod as she matures from a child at age ten into a young woman at age twenty. Wise for her years, Vanessa reveals much about the adult world in which she lives. "Vanessa rebels against the dominance of age; she watches [her grandfather] imitate her aunt Edna; and her rage at times is such that she would gladly kick him. It takes great skill to keep this story within the expanding horizon of this young girl and yet make it so revealing of the adult world." Atlantic A Bird in the House achieves the breadth of scope which we usually associate with the novel (and thereby is as psychologically valid as a good novel), and at the same time uses the techniques of the short story form to reveal the... Dragonlance: Dragons of Summer Flame Margaret Weis February 2002 Mass Market Paperback From AudioFile Weis and Hickman return to the hugely successful Dragonlance series with a war against the big guy himself, who is named Chaos but is actually the creator of everything. He's portrayed as a towering giant who can be subdued by a minor wound and a magical trick. All the usual fantasy elements are here: magic, elf-like fellows, spells, magicians, thieves, swords and sorcery. Reader Wanda McCaddon proceeds with rousing British intonations, bringing emotional effect through changes in pacing. She makes no attempt at character deline-ation but is expressive and surprisingly effective, mainly because she's obviously having a fine time. D.R.N.

Morley Callaghan had earned a large international reputation decades earlier and Hugh MacLennan had become the chronicler of Canadian sociology in fiction. But Laurence was in the vanguard of a new era of writing that would both satisfy Canadians' needs to see their own experiences in fiction and draw the attention of the world. Like great literature throughout history, her writing sprang from deep local sources but appealed to the universal. With the emergence of Laurence, Mordecai Richler and Robertson Davies in the 1960s and 1970s, you could talk for the first time about great Canadian writing the same as you could refer to modern American literature or the English novel.
