No money. No passport. No identity. Taken to a mental hospital by the police, MacLean then started to hallucinate so severely he had to be tied down. He could remember song lyrics, but not his family, his friends, or the woman he was told he loved.

Maclean's Companion to Canadian Arts and Culture
This eclectic, provocative, and comprehensive guide surveys Canadian creators and their creations in every cultural medium. Cultural critic Tom Henighan introduces each subject with a thought-provoking essay on the "state of the art" at the turn of the millennium, adding lists of his own best choices, such as "16 Indispensable Canadian Films" and "Notable Examples of Canadian Architecture." Contact details and resumes for major artistic companies and institutions in each province are listed. Juno, Genie, Gemini, Jessie, Governor General, and other award winners are also listed, year by year. An indispensable reference, a basic primer, an informed assessment of the arts in Canada-this is the book for anyone who cares about Canadian culture.
The Girls of Slender Means (New Directions Classic)
"Long ago in 1945 all the nice people in England were poor, allowing for exceptions," begins The Girls of Slender Means, Dame Muriel Spark's tragic and rapier-witted portrait of a London ladies' hostel just emerging from the shadow of World War II. Like the May of Teck Club itself—"three times window shattered since 1940 but never directly hit"—its lady inhabitants do their best to act as if the world were back to normal: practicing elocution, and jostling over suitors and a single Schiaparelli gown. The novel's harrowing ending reveals that the girls' giddy literary and amorous peregrinations are hiding some tragically painful war wounds. Chosen by Anthony Burgess as one of the Best Modern Novels in the Sunday Times of London, The Girls of Slender Means is a taut and eerily perfect novel by an author The New York Times has called "one of this century's finest creators of comic-metaphysical entertainment."
