From Our Editors

Paul is the son of a French-Canadian father and Irish mother - not exactly a match made in heaven at the first half of the century. His struggle to come to terms with these polar opposite cultures is just one aspect of this classic Canadian novel. Now even more applicable than when it was first published in 1945, Two Solitudes looks at the very different experiences of two people in Canada. Set against a backdrop of the most powerful events of the 20th century, Two Solitudes sends a message about tolerance that is even more poignant today. Written by the late, great Hugh MacLennan.

'Two Solitudes' not only explores Paul Tallard's journey or delivers a message of tolerance, it make a strong point concerning the goings-on in Canada, specifically between French and English people. MacLennan avoids favouring one over the other and succeeds in portraying what we all look for in a book of this kind: reality. MacLennan's book could not be more real and deserves every bit of the Governor General's Award. I recommend the book to anyone who wants to read something worthwhile and… + read more
