Another win for :the 2013 Governor General’s Prize for Fiction,which is one of the most prestigious prizes in Canada.
The assessment committee described the book as “an entire narrative universe with its own mysterious cosmology.
This exhilarating feat of literary design dazzles with masterful storytelling. Each character is a planet – complex and brilliantly revealed. Precise sensual prose illuminates greed, fear, jealousy, longing – all that it means to be human.”. Here’s the link:http://ggbooks.canadacouncil.ca/en
