Loading ...The Flying Troutmans: A Novel by Miriam Toews
Miriam Toews, winner of Canada’s 2004 Governor General’s Award for A Complicated Kindness, has just released her latest novel, The Flying Troutmans. It is the story of Hattie, a young woman who returns from Paris to Winnipeg to take care of her niece and nephew after her sister Min is admitted to a psychiatric hospital. Reminiscent of the movie Little Miss Sunshine, the novel evolves into a road-trip tale, as Hattie decides to take the children on a quest to track down their long-lost father and finds herself, playing guardian and in way over her head.
