Three Day Road | Joseph Boyden

A great story

4 years ago

Three Day Road weaves a story of tradition and war viewed through the eyes of the aboriginal people of Northern Ontario. The first person narrative, which jumps between the young sniper Xavier during his anguish in the trenches of WW1 and his traditional aunt living deep in the wilderness of Ontario, makes clear the burden of war on the soul. A great read that not only lets you live the daily life of the soldier, but the intricacies of a luminous culture. read review

Knights of the Sea ~ A Grim Tale of Murder, Politics, and Spoon Addiction ~ My latest book is finally out. It's a bit hard to sum up in one line, though the sub-title gives a pretty good idea of the tone...
