  • Ian Williams Is the Second Trinidadian-Born Writer to Win the Giller Prize
    Ian Williams is the second Trinidadian-born writer to win the Giller Prize December 11, 2019 ‘The Circle Game’, award-winning writer Margaret Atwood’s first major collection of poetry published in 1964, was the first book that Ian Williams bought with his own money at a Brampton bookstore. In his acceptance speech after winning this year’s $100,000 Scotiabank Giller Prize on November 18, Williams singled out the Canadian literary icon who sat at the table next to his on her 80th birthday. He didn’t know that the octogenarian, who won the Giller Prize in 1996 for her historical fiction novel, ‘Alias Grace’, would be at the event. “I think that appreciation is under-valued and we sort of go forward expecting that people know how we feel,” Williams said. “The kind of impact that writers have is hard to measure. She was incredibly important to me growing up.” He was turned on to Atwood while sifting through his mother’s anthologies. Judy Williams, a primary school teacher, was at the time pursuing a degree part-time at York University. “I was a precocious kid looking for poetry to read,” the first-time novelist recalled. “My mom had a book on Canadian poetry among her collection, so Atwood was slightly familiar by that point to me.” ‘The Circle Game’, which won a 1966 Governor General’s Award, holds pride of place in Williams office at the University of British Columbia where he’s an Assistant Professor of Poetry since January 2017. Named one of ten Canadian writers to watch by CBC last year, he won the biggest prize in Canadian Literature for his first novel, ‘Reproduction’, which explores unconventional connections and brilliantly redefines family.

Our publishers are the ones saying yes to debut authors, who often go on to work with bigger publishers. Th ey are taking risks and supporting authors who are outside of the mainstream. And when they’re not bringing you something completely new, they are reissuing important literary texts that are out-of-print and/or diffi cult to source. In this catalogue you’ll fi nd 130 potential course texts from 35 of our members, and this is just a sample of what’s available.
