Barometer Rising by Hugh MacLennan, #1

[Ibis3]

This was the book that launched my CanLit Challenge back in 2005, so if you want to start at the beginning, this is it. I got many recommendations for this novel and by the end of it, it was clear why. It was extremely compelling reading--very much a "disaster film" on the page. Barometer Rising

I read this years ago. I have since then visited Halifax and this book has been on my list of books I'd like to re-read for some time.
