I was so happily surprised by Tyson's novel. Cynically, I did wonder how much weight her musical fame carried in securing a publishing path for Tyson's first novel. Well, I was sucked right in, by page three. Joyner's Dream tells the multi-generational story of the Joyner-Fitzhelm families.

I shall link to the Globe and Mail's review for now, until I compile my own thoughts. Though, I do disagree with the reviewers comparison - likening Tyson to Robertson Davies. !?!?!
