  • ASIN: Book Description Winner of the Governor General's Award
    Counterpointing the stories of the legendary Western cowboy Shorty McAdoo and Harry Vincent, the ambitious young screenwriter commissioned to retell his story in 1920s Hollywood, this novel reconstructs an epic journey through Montana into the Canadian plains, by a group of men pursuing their stolen horses.
    The Englishman's Boy intelligently and creatively depicts an American West where greed and deception are tempered by honor and strength. As Richard Ford has noted, "Vanderhaeghe is simply a wonderful writer. The Englishman's Boy, spanning as it does two countries, two centuries, two views of history the Canadian Wild West as 'imagined' by Hollywood is a great accomplishment. Readers, I think, will find this book irresistible."

    http://www.virtualsk.com/current_issue/guy_vanderhaeghe.html
    by Dave Yanko - credit Adrian Ewins Guy Vanderhaeghe Saskatchewan writer Guy Vanderhaeghe recalls as a teen growing up in Esterhazy seeing a 1960s movie called "The Devil's Brigade". A wartime flick in the rag-tag-group-of-misfits-turned- heroes genre, the largely unremarkable film included a scene in which Canadian and American soldiers competed against each other in a foot race. Sprinkled throughout the audience in the small-town movie theatre were American kids, whose parents moved to Esterhazy in the late 1950s to work as managers and engineers at the nearby potash mine. "The theatre actually broke up into the American kids cheering the Americans and the Canadian kids cheering the Canadians. "Of course, the Americans won. It was an American movie," Vanderhaeghe said during an interview in the sunny living room of his Saskatoon bungalow. Growing up with this small group of Americans generated "my first awakenings" of Canadian nationalism, he said. "And that doesn't mean to say that I was anti-American. . . . But it did reinforce a sense of "otherness" of some kind - of distinction."

    WHAT A FABULOUS WRITER Sluggish This book was packed with historical detail, but I found the narrative sluggish. At times, I felt many of the passages should have been left to the "backstory" (i.e., edited out). But, the last battle scene, between the Crow and the Blackfoot Indian tribes, was absolutely riveting. And, though I felt the ending was veering toward high melodrama (on the "two ships that pass in the night" variety), I did appreciate knowing that at least one of the brothers was able to extract some meaning from his life . . . The Gaunts Put the 'Dis' in Dysfunctional Young Englishman Simon Gaunt, religious zealot, has gone missing in the Old American West (specifically Canada). Dear old dad Henry, the overbearing so-and-so, sends older brother Addington and Simon's twin Charles in search. These folks put the `dis' in a dysfunctional family. Addington, a self-centered martinet, loves only himself and his pleasures and timid Charles, an aspiring artist, seems not to know what he wants. They hire Jerry Potts, a real-life Canadian frontiersman (Vanderhaeghe is Canadian) to help find Simon and meet up with a collection of society's castoffs and loose ends and form an odd posse.

    In alternating chapters, two narratives?one set in the American West, the other in Twenties Hollywood?gradually unfold and intersect. The Western saga centers around a boy who, after his English employer succumbs to a fever, attaches himself to a band of wolvers making their perilous way through hostile Indian territory into Canada. Fifty years later, in Hollywood, Saskatchewan native Harry Vincent is taken in hand by Rachel Gold, a so-called "new woman," as a scenarist for a studio headed by the mysterious and elusive Damon Ira Chance. Chance dreams of producing an epic Western in the tradition of his hero, D.W. Griffith, that will stand as a landmark of cinematic history. To this end, he hires Vincent to track down an old-timer whose story he is sure will lend itself to his purpose. This winner of the Governor... The Last Crossing

    Paperback
    Book Review Set in the late 19th century, The Last Crossing, Guy Vanderhaeghe's first novel since his acclaimed Englishman's Boy, is the story of three well-off English brothers: twins Simon and Charles Gaunt and their elder sibling, Addington, a former soldier and an arrogant scoundrel. At the behest of their dictatorial father, Charles and Addington travel the prairies of the U.S. and Canada in search of sensitive Simon, who has disappeared. Much of the novel concerns their journeysbottles of port and claret rattling in their wagonsthrough Indian country with a cast of intricately drawn, fully realized characters. The small troupe is led through the whiskey-coloured light by Jerry Potts, a half-breed with one foot firmly in each world. The heart of the plot involves the love that Charles, a painter, feels for Lucy Stoveall, a...

    Slaughterhouse-Five (or The Children's Crusade: A Duty Dance with Death)
    by Kurt Vonnegut from Caedmon
    Kurt Vonnegut's absurdist classic Slaughterhouse-Five introduces us to Billy Pilgrim, a man who becomes 'unstuck in time' after he is abducted by aliens from the planet Tralfamadore. In a plot-scrambling display of virtuosity, we follow Pilgrim simultaneously through all phases of his life, concentrating on his (and Vonnegut's) shattering experience as an American prisoner of war who witnesses the firebombing of Dresden. Slaughterhouse-Five is not only Vonnegut's most powerful book, it is also as important as any written since 1945. Like Catch-22 , it fashions the author's experiences in the Second World War into an eloquent and deeply funny plea against butchery in the service of authority.
