Anne's Book Club - Carol Shields




Book Club on May 1 will celebrate Carol Shields. I have included a list of her books, but I would suggested focusing on the last 3 (Stone Diaries, Larry's Party and Unless). I have copies of all 3, and I have read the first 2 fairly recently, if anyone wants to borrow either one.

Food theme: TBA




Here is a list:
▪ Small Ceremonies, 1976

▪ The Box Garden, 1977 (Later published in a joint edition with Small Ceremonies as Duet)

▪ Happenstance, 1980

▪ A Fairly Conventional Woman, 1982

▪ Swann: A Mystery, 1987 (UK title: Mary Swann)

▪ A Celibate Season, 1991 (with Blanche Howard)

▪ The Republic of Love, 1992

▪ The Stone Diaries, 1993 (winner of the Governor General's Award,

National Book Critics Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize)

▪ Larry's Party, 1997 (winner of the Orange Prize, and the Prix de Livre)

▪ Unless, 2002 (winner of the Ethel Wilson Fiction Prize, shortlisted for the 2003 Orange Prize)
