A Forest for Calum still charming audiences
Frank Macdonald will be giving a talk to Alexander MacLeod's Atlantic Literature course at Saint Mary's University on June 3.
On May 27, the regular book panel of CBC Radio One's Mainstreet (Halifax), met with guest host Stephanie Domet to discuss A Forest for Calum. The panel recalled the Globe and Mail review of 2005, which suggested that "if there is any justice ... A Forest for Calum would be a Canadian classic."
Panelists were 100 per cent in agreement that, on all aspects of the book, it deserved such a billing.
Fans might recall that critic Ron Foley MacDonald said A Forest for Calum had one of the most "jaw-droppingly beautiful" literary devices in English-language literature.
