    A Novel about Elizabeth Stuart, the Winter Queen

    Written with cinematic flair, this sweeping historical novel recreates the drama and intrigue of seventeenth-century England and the Continent, as it tells of Elizabeth’s marriage to Frederic of the Palatinate, her brief reign as Queen of Bohemia, and the struggle to keep her family intact as they are forced into exile.

    Into the D/ark

    David Elias

    It’s the fall of 1963, and the assassination of John F. Kennedy is seeping into the surreal happenings of small-town southern Manitoba. Clarence Martens, a blacksmith, has turned to creating abstract sculptures, while his wife Rose deals with the aftermath of a fire that left their two sons, Jake and Cornie, disfigured; Martha’s preacher brother Abe has abandoned his congregation to devote himself to making “The Ark”; and Martha is overcome by truths she cannot tell and feelings she must suppress. This all comes to a dramatic climax with the first big snowfall of the year.
