Welcome!

Hello everyone!!
The purpose of this blog is to dissect and analyse the novel "The Last of the Crazy People" by Timothy Findley. Four blog entries making connections per quarter of the book, an Apologia, summarizing the facts gathered from research regarding the author, their history, other works, book reviews, interviews, essays etc. It is also important to bring awareness to anyone who enjoys reading that Canadian authors can also write successful novels. Often we read novels written by American or British authors and enjoy them. For some reason we aren't knowledgable in the area of Canadian writers, and couldn't name five if our lives depended on it. Along with this blog, readers can learn some very insightful facts regarding Timonthy Findley (this blog specifically) and other successful talented Canadian authors.

If you are not familiar with this story, please read a summary plot online, if you are interested in making comments on my opinions and connections made through out the novel.

Thanks, and enjoy!
:)

  1. It's a decent start on both the Welcome post and the links list. You're behind on some of your content, so the whole layout looks quite fragmentary.

  2. Start to put up some of the explication and apologia. Need to see it progress. Keep going!
