Armchairs & Authors 2011

Guess who's coming to town. Linwood Barclay!

Friday, September 30th, 7-10pm, Armchairs, Authors & Art will take place at SGI Canada, 20490 Porterfield Road, Alton. Tickets are $25 available at BookLore.

This year's authors are as follows:

Linwood Barclay, author of his newest novel "The Accident", a mesmerizing thriller packed with unexpected twists and superb characters. Barclay used to be a columnist for the Toronto Star. I have read one of his books and am anxious to read more.

Trevor Cole, author of "Practical Jean" and winner of the 2011 Leacock Award for humour, a dark comedy that throws light on the power of middle age friendship. Also sounds like a good read.

Camilla Gibb, author of "The Beauty of Humanity Movement", also the Trillium Award Winner "Sweetness in the Belly." "The Beauty of Humanity" is a novel set in contemporary Vietnam - a country undergoing momentous change.

Moderator is Nicola Ross. Refreshments provided by Silver Thyme, The Wine Coaches and Mill St. Brewery. The authors' books will be on sale tax free.
