houseofanansipress.wordpress.com
“I am a big fan of The Cello Suites by Eric Siblin. Being a Rock ’n’ Roll fan who enjoys an occasional evening of classical music (if it comes with a good book and a glass of port) I loved Eric’s odyssey into the world of Bach, Casals and the melodious cello. ...

House of Anansi Press Dennis Lee guest blogs for us on what makes Civil Elegies work as a theatrical performance. Very, very cool and thoughtful stuff.

houseofanansipress.wordpress.com
The 1972 Governor General’s Award-winning work of poet Dennis Lee is brought to life by Soulpepper Academy graduates Mike Ross and Lorenzo Savoini, dramatized and set to music in a way that speaks to the heart of what Canada was, is and could be.

House of Anansi Press New blog post: Sharon Bailey recommends Tom King's excellent Massey Lectures book, The Truth About Stories.

houseofanansipress.wordpress.com
“I’m rereading The Truth About Stories, one of my favourite Massey Lectures. Thomas King is, as ever, deft with a tale — in this case, many tales — but he delivers contextual gut punches just when you’ve been lulled into vulnerability. ‘There is a story I know . . .’”
