Margaret and Charley
Although Charles Best is known for discovering insulin, the story of his life neither begins nor ends with that one moment. Not only did he make many other discoveries, he was also one half of an extraordinary couple who, during their almost sixty years together, were involved in many of the significant events of the twentieth century. Margaret & Charley is the story of these two people from their beginnings on the east coast at the turn of the century through the years that followed. Through diaries, scrapbooks, photograph albums, and other documentation, the details of their lives are shared with the reader.
Gabrielle Roy
This illustrated biography highlights three pivotal phases in Gabrielle Roy's life and development as an author: her first twenty-seven years, which were spent growing up with her family in Manitoba; her two-year stay in France and England, in the late 1930s; and her return from Europe to live in Montreal. It was in this last period that Roy honed her craft and, through her travels across the country, learned about the Canada she came to describe in ways that altered the course of Canadian literature.

Au pays de Gabrielle Roy
Prix Margaret-McWilliams, mention 2006 Avec le souvenir du regard scintillant de Gabrielle Roy, Annette Saint-Pierre nous invite à parcourir le destin de l’une des figures les plus marquantes de la littérature canadienne. Au pays de Gabrielle Roy se présente moins dans les détails de la vie et de l’oeuvre de Gabrielle, dont plus d’un biographe ont déjà fait état, mais dans la richesse de la vie familiale et de la maison natale dans laquelle l’auteur de Bonheur d’occasion a évolué. De la Montagne Pembina à Saint-Boniface, jusqu’à l’exode et le devenir de chacun de ses frères et soeurs, ce livre clef d’une grande érudition dévoile une Gabrielle Roy inconnue — lettres inédites à l’appui — au coeur de son intimité.
