Books have the power to profoundly express the complex and rich cultural life that makes Nova Scotia a place people want to visit, live, work and play. This year, the 150th Anniversary of Confederation provided Public Libraries across the province with a unique opportunity to involve Nova Scotians in a celebration of our literary heritage. The value of public engagement in the 150 Books of Influence project is demonstrated by the astonishing breadth and quality of titles listed within.

Eat at home and buy the books. Jack Rabinovitch1 Founded in 1994 by Jack Rabinovitch, the Giller Prize was established to honour Rabinovitch’s late wife, the journalist Doris Giller, who had died from cancer a year earlier.2 Since its inception, the prize has served to recognize excellence in Canadian English-language fiction, including both novels and short stories. Initially the award was endowed to provide an annual cash prize of $25,000.3 In 2005, the Giller Prize partnered with Scotiabank to create the Scotiabank Giller Prize. Under the new arrangement, the annual purse doubled in size to $50,000, with $40,000 going to the winner and $2,500 going to each of four additional finalists.4 Beginning in 2008, $50,000 was given to the winner and $5,000 * Andrew Irvine holds the position of Professor and Head of Economics, Philosophy and Political Science at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan.

  • Four Poems by Malcolm Lowry
    383 FOUR POEMS BY MALCOLM LOWRY Quartermaster at the Wheel The Harkness light! Another hour spelled out, Struck by myself with unction but with doubt. A man is killed but does not hear the shot Which kills him; four bells kills me. Lucky to hear it jf I killed myself,- Whose age haunts calendars upon the screen; The heroine horn in nineteen eighteen, Who yesterday was born in nineteen eight. A pile of magazines assess dead love On shore, where one light burns no love will wait. -Past years are volcanoes beyond the wake, Tomorrow is the sea and then the sea, To both least faithless when we most forsake, The one unsealed, the other vomltless Of Jonah to his gourd or Nineveh .... It is a straw to tickle bloodshot eyes Of quartermasters soldered to darkness, The stiff wheel and the remembrance of the drowned, For sinking men to suck at or to claw, The thought that what we saw we often hear Too late or not at all, or cannot bear To know resounding eardrums register ... Our siren now! What ugliest ship has not Borne heart from heart with that deep plangency, Sadder than masthead's light, a soul In mourning whose voice is grief gone by. Roll on, you witless, dark brown ocean, roll, And light light years and grey ones let us live Within that gracious nexus of reprieve Between the fated sight and fatal sound - Now leave the world to Harkness and to me. 384 THE DALHOUSIE REVIEW [This Bitterest Coast] This is the end but since it is the end, You are happy at least in this one certainty, As you were in the eternity Of childhood's blue summer with seagull and yacht for friend, When God was good; love, true; sea, sea; land, land.

  • The Stakes Ben Sanders
    FEBRUARY 2018 The Stakes Ben Sanders An NYPD robbery detective uses his insider knowledge to rob criminals. The dazzling new stand-alone thriller from the bestselling author of American Blood and Marshall's Law. Description Rip-offs are a dangerous game, but NYPD robbery detective Miles Keller thinks he's found a good strategy: rip off rich New York criminals and then retire early, before word's out about his true identity. New town, new name, no worries. Retirement can't come soon enough, though. The NYPD is investigating him for the shooting of a hitman named Jack Deen, who was targeting Lucy Gates - a former police informant and Miles's ex-lover. Miles thinks shooting hitmen counts as altruism, but in any case a murder charge would make life difficult. He's ready to go to ground, but then Nina Stone reappears in his life. Nina is a fellow heist professional and the estranged wife of LA crime boss Charles Stone. Miles last saw her five years ago, when he was investigating her for bank robbery and looked the other way, for reasons he is still trying to figure out. Since then her life has grown more complicated: her husband wants her back, and he's dispatched his go-to gun thug to play repo man. Complicating matters is the fact that the gun thug in question is Bobby Deen, cousin of the dead Jack Deen - and Bobby wants vengeance. The stakes couldn't be higher, but Nina has an offer that could be lucrative. Maybe Miles can stick around a while longer and get the big payoff he's been waiting for? But luck has a way of running out and soon Miles is in way over his head.
