Who Killed Mom? A Delinquent Son’s Meditation on Family, Mortality, and Very Tacky Candles steve burgess

One of Canada’s funniest writers tackles his mother’s life and death in a profound, entertaining story

A

memoir, biogr aphy, and outrageous comedy make for a perfect blend in

and Very Tacky Candles

the debut book from acclaimed writer Steve Burgess. Telling the tale of his mother’s life and death, and along the way laying bare his own struggles, Burgess delivers a moving meditation on life and family.

Steve Burgess

The author’s mother, Joan, barely survived her thirteenth birthday: a rare disorder had made it almost impossible for her to swallow food. Her battle to survive this illness was the first in a lifelong struggle with the demons of her upbringing. As she raised her five children, of whom the author is the youngest, Joan revealed herself to be a strong and remarkably complex woman. This is the story of her family: Joan herself, her husband—a charming United Church minister—and their children, including the alarmingly delinquent Steve. Who Killed Mom? brims with uproarious anecdotes and one-liners. Whether he’s relating how an ice cream product saved him from a gruesome death on the Trans-­Canada, sizing up the rebranding efforts of a woeful Manitoba motel, or depicting daily life in a retirement community, Burgess infuses his tales with plenty of laughs. But beneath the book’s hilarity is a penetrating examination of eternal themes: family, mortality, fate, and the

enduring value of love. steve burgess is a writer and broadcaster whose honours include two Canadian National Magazine Awards. Burgess is the former host of @the end, a nationally broadcast talk show on cbc Newsworld, and a frequent cbc Radio guest host. Burgess’s stories have been featured in Reader’s Digest editions around the world, as well as Maclean’s, the Globe and Mail, and other publications. Who Killed Mom? is his first book.

In the Land of Long Fingernails A Gravedigger’s Memoir charles wilkins

“If Raymond Chandler had written a memoir, I could imagine it reading like this.”  globe and mail First published in hardcover in 2008, In the Land of Long Fingernails was shortlisted for the Trillium Book Prize, the Stephen Leacock Memorial Medal for Humour, and the Toronto Book Awards. During the hazy summer of 1969, Charles Wilkins, then a university student, took a job as a gravedigger in a vast corporate cemetery in the east end of Toronto. The bizarre but true events of that time—a midsummer gravediggers’ strike, the unearthing of a victim of an unsolved murder, and a little illegal bone shifting—play out among a Barnum-esque parade of mavericks and misfits in this macabre and hilarious memoir. Amid relentless gallows humour and the inevitable reminders of what it is, finally, to be human, Wilkins provides an unforgettable insider’s view of a morbidly fascinating industry. In the Land of Long Fingernails is a story of

The book puts our decisions into perspective with entries for the big things (the World Cup, volcanic eruptions, the Iraq war) as well as the small (email, ironing, a glass of beer). And it covers the range from birth (the carbon footprint of having a child) to death (the carbon impact of cremation). Packed full of surprises—a plastic bag has the smallest footprint of any item listed, while a block of cheese is bad news—the book continuously informs, delights, and engages the reader. Solidly researched and referenced, the easily digestible figures, statistics, charts, and graphs (including a section on the carbon footprint of various foods) will encourage discussion and help people to make up their own minds about their consumer choices. “Mike Berners-Lee knows more about carbon footprints than anyone else

Eat, Sleep, Ride How I Braved Bears, Badlands, and Big Breakfasts in My Quest to Cycle the Tour Divide pa u l h o w a r d

Armed with wit and humour, an internationally acclaimed cycling writer tackles the longest bike race in the world For Paul Howard, who has ridden the entire Tour de France route during the race itself—setting off at 4 am each day to avoid being caught by the pros— riding a small mountain­bike race should hold no fear. Still, this isn’t just any mountain­bike race. This is the Tour Divide. Running from Banff in Canada to the Mexican border, the Tour Divide is more than 2,700 miles—500 miles longer than the Tour de France. Its route along the Continental Divide goes through the heart of the Rocky Mountains and involves more than 200,000 feet of ascent—the equivalent of climbing Mount Everest seven times. The other problem is that Howard has never owned a mountain bike—and how will training on the South Downs in southern England prepare him for sleeping rough in the Rockies? What’s more, the efficient back­up team that helped Howard in the Tour—his dad—will be absent. Undaunted, Howard swaps the smooth tarmac roads of France for the mud, snow, and ice of the Tour Divide, fending off grizzly bears, mountain lions, and moose. Buzzing roadside fans are replaced by buzzing mosquitoes. Worse is the unshakeable fear that he might have to earn his wild west stripes by drinking whiskey with

On Rare Birds a n i ta a l b u s • Translation by g e r a l d c h a p p l e

An Illustrated natural history and a passionate account of extinct and endangered bird species from around the world Internationally renowned, award-winning author Anita Albus recounts the sad histories of several extinct bird species, including the passenger pigeon, the Carolina parakeet, and the great auk. She also gives a detailed account of seven rare birds: the hermit ibis, the elusive corncrake, the kookaburra, the Eurasian nightjar, the barn owl, the northern hawk owl, and the kingfisher. This visually stunning book is richly illustrated with the author’s own artwork as well as that of well-known nature artists such as John James Audubon. Combining natural history and investigative reporting, the book also weaves in mythological and cultural material and, most of all, tells a compelling story. On Rare Birds shows that the extinction of these bird species is a great loss not only to the natural world but also to culture. With each species lost, a world is lost to human understanding—to our arts, mythology, and science. This exciting and provocative book will appeal to all those who love birds and care about their survival. “Albus doesn’t just show you things; she teaches you how to see for yourself.” daniel mendelsohn, New York Review of Books on The Art of Arts anita albus is a writer and artist based in Munich and Burgundy. Her books include The Art of Arts, The Botanical Drama, The Garden of Songs, and the translation into German of Flashlights by Jules and Edmond de Goncourt. She has illustrated The Passionate Gardener by Rudolph Borchardt and The Jealous Potter by Claude Lévi-Strauss. Albus has received many prizes, including France’s highest achievement prize for her work as an artist living in that country.

The Armchair Book of Gardens A Miscellany jane billinghurst

A delightful mélange of writing and images that explores our passion for gardens Why are we so passionate about gardens, and what do they represent? In chapters titled “Shades of Paradise,” “Statements and Style,” “Gardens for Body and Soul,” “Gardeners Rampant,” and “Purely for Pleasure,” this fabulous collection of prose and visuals looks at gardens throughout history and across cultures from many angles, celebrating their sensual, spiritual, aesthetic, social, and even political dimensions. Writers from around the world evoke the garden in its many incarnations, sometimes lightheartedly, sometimes wittily, sometimes expressing regret or sorrow. Whether the selections portray the garden as a restorative retreat, a way to survive, a social showpiece, a bower filled with ghosts, a place to wrestle down weeds, or a lovely excuse to spend time outdoors, readers will delight in the endless ways humans have carved out a spot for themselves from the natural world. Complete with full-colour historical and contemporary images, this attractive volume makes a great gift for readers of all kinds. Like a garden itself, The Armchair Book of Gardens blooms with heady offerings, providing flowery fantasies, patches of wildness, sensuous surprises, and satisfaction for the soul. jane billinghurst holds an ma in German and philosophy from Oxford University and is the author of numerous nonfiction books, including Temptress: From the Original Bad Girls to Women on Top. She is also an editor and has been the director of Simon Fraser University’s Summer Book Editing Workshop. A master gardener, she lives in Anacortes, Washington, where she
