I wonder if the whole world didn't hear my slowly exhale after finishing the last page of this magnificent book.... at the beginning I thought it was Ok, but every single page made me care more deeply about each character and by the end, they were in my heart & soul. I loved how Margaret Laurence changed the order of Piques last names. It made me think of Pique trying to find her balance between her heritage from Morag and Jules. The order of her last names was the wave she rode back and forth figuring herself out. I'm only so sorry that I won't be able to be in the discussion tomorrow, my son has activities that I'm on driving duty for. Please do keep me in mind for the future reads, I would love to read more by Margaret Laurence. Thank you also, especially for making the videos.
oh! Jennie, your videos are so good.
