Moose Jaw,
Saskatchewan, Canada George Fetherling
The Globe and Mail has cited George Fetherling, the Vancouver poet, novelist and cultural commentator, as a person “who, for most of his life, has been thinking about what makes good writing, and it shows.” The Montreal Gazette has called him “a mercurial, liberal intelligence…the kind of which English Canada has too short a supply.” To the Toronto Star he is simply a “legendary” figure in Canadian writing. He has published over 50 volumes of fiction, verse, memoir, travel narrative, history and criticism. His best known books are Travels by Night: A Memoir of the Sixties (1994—recently adapted for the stage), Selected Poems (1994), and the novel Jericho (2005). His latest is Tales of Two Cities: A Novella Plus Stories.
