The Bukowski Agency

“Gregory Scofield is the literary uncle to all of Indigenous Lit…. The return of Thunder Through My Veins marks an important shift in thinking about the cyclical nature of how our stories weave through time.”
— JOSHUA WHITEHEAD, author of Jonny Appleseed

When a young woman shines, the world can catch fire— pick up a copy of Lori Lansens' This Little Light

Author Lori Lansens

“Lansens throws her readers right into the action and keeps them there, as thirsty, hungry, and frightened as two young girls on the run. A crazy-good coming-of-age thriller that will make you sweat, starting at page one.”
— CHRISTINA DALCHER, author of the bestseller VOX

“Lori Lansens’ This Little Light is kind of a millennial’s take on The Handmaid’s Tale. It’s complex and fun, and a super interesting look into what it is to be a teenage girl in these times…. I’m working on turning this into a series with Universal.”
— KATHLEEN ROBERTSON, actor, Northern Rescue

The Georgia Straight: Trailblazing Vancouver-born author Wayson Choy dies

Born and raised in Vancouver, Wayson Choy was Professor Emeritus at Humber College in Toronto. In 1995 his first novel, The Jade Peony, spent six months on The Globe and Mail’s national bestseller list, won the Trillium Book Award (shared with Margaret Atwood) for the best book by an Ontario author, and won the City of Vancouver Book Award. It was also an American Library Association Notable Book of the Year. It has never been out of print, and over 100,000 copies have been sold. The Literary Review of Canada declared The Jade Peony one of the one hundred most important books in Canadian history.

In 1999 Choy’s first memoir, Paper Shadows, was a finalist for the Governor General’s Award, the Charles Taylor Prize, and the Drainie-Taylor Biography Prize, and was the winner of the Edna Staebler Award for Creative Non-Fiction. All That Matters, a companion novel to The Jade Peony, won the Trillium Book Award in 2004 and was shortlisted for the Giller Prize. In 2006 Choy was inducted into the Order of Canada, and in 2009 he released to wide acclaim Not Yet: A Memoir of Living and Almost Dying.

“Choy ranges over familiar territory with a fresh eye, disclosing universal themes in the particularities of the Asian-American life of half a century ago.” —THE NEW YORK TIMES

—CLAIRE CAMERON, author of The Last Neanderthal

“Yasuko Thanh takes us on an unflinching and honest reflection on a life threaded with poverty, violence, rape, addiction and mental illness. I was profoundly moved….”
—CARRIANNE LEUNG, author of That Time I Loved You

New Year = new books. Watch for these three new releases in January 2019.

PRAISE FOR REBER’S STARLIGHT TOUR “Starlight Tour is a vital chronicle of a tragedy that opened my eyes and yet still remains as painfully relevant as ever. A devastating portrait of the relationship between Indigenous peoples and a justice system that has offered us little real justice, it is as important for Canadians to read now as it was when first published and exposes just how long past due systemic reform is.”
JESSE WENTE, CBC Radio

DAVID CHARIANDY, author of Brother
