"This is the thrilling tale of a gifted immigrant artist and a prematurely old, nineteen-year-old girl, who got married in 1959 and lived La Vie Boheme on the west coast of Canada. Their twenty-two year marriage took place against the backdrop of a turbulent era, that saw the rise of feminism and the environmental movement. This Memoir explores how those movements played out in their own lives, and incidentally, offers insights as well as amusing anecdotes on marriage, art, Canadian identity and indigenous mythology. A book that is thought provoking as well as highly entertaining and insightful. A book for out chaotic time."
