55: In the Heart of Montreal: Fiction from La Belle Province
Immersive, extraordinary, complex: Montreal not only captures creative hearts; it’s an exceptional backdrop to novels that explore the human condition. Three exceptional authors compare notes on this city, as shared in their latest works. Dimitri Nasrallah’s Hotline “sears the heart” with a story of life as a new immigrant in the 80s. Stéfanie Clermont confronts violence, betrayal, and class as experienced by three millennial friends in The Music Game. And Heather O’Neill ushers us into her spellbinding novel When We Lost Our Heads. For lovers of Mount Royal or simply top fiction, this is an ode to the myriad, kaleidoscopic lives in urban centres.
