SUMMARY:Suzette Mayr at The Imperial Pub | In Her Voice
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at Imperial Pub for an In Her Voice event!\nCoinciding with Congress in Toronto\, we’re pleased to be celebrating the release of Suzette Mayr’s new book \nDr. Edith Vane and the Hares of Crawley Hall \nShe’ll be joined by Barbara Seeber\, co-author of The Slow Professor \nWhen:\nMonday\, June 5 @ 6.30pm \nWhere:\nImperial Pub \n54 Dundas Street East \n\n \n\nDr. Edith Vane\, scholar of English literature\, is contentedly ensconced at the University of Inivea. Her dissertation on African-Canadian pioneer housewife memoirist Beulah Crump-Withers is about to be published\, and her job’s finally safe\, if she only can fill out her AAO properly. She’s a little anxious\, but a new floral blouse and her therapist’s repeated assurance that she is the architect of her own life should fix that. All should be well\, really. Except for her broken washing machine\, her fickle new girlfriend\, her missing friend Coral\, her backstabbing fellow professors\, a cutthroat new dean – and the fact that the sentient and malevolent Crawley Hall has decided it wants them all out\, and the hall and its hellish hares will stop at nothing to get rid of them. \nLike an unholy collision of Stoner\, The Haunting of Hill House\, Charlie Brown\, and Alice in Wonderland\, this audacious new novel by the Giller Prize–longlisted Suzette Mayr is a satire that takes the hallowed halls of the campus novel in fantastical – and unsettling – directions. \n\n \n\nSuzette Mayr is the author of four previous novels: Monoceros\, Moon Honey\, The Widows\, and Venous Hum. The Widows was shortlisted for the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize for Best Book in the Canada-Caribbean region\, and has been translated into German. Moon Honey was shortlisted for the Writers’ Guild of Alberta’s Best First Book and Best Novel Awards. Monoceros was longlisted for the Giller Prize. Suzette Mayr lives and works in Calgary. \n\nBarbara K. Seeber is a professor in the Department of English at Brock University. She received the Brock Faculty of Humanities Award for Excellence in Teaching in 2014. \n\n \n\n\n000000
