The Courtenay Library is hosting Sunshine Coast-based author Catherine McNeil on June 24 at 2 p.m.
McNeil is on a book tour, promoting her latest novel, Emily & Elspeth. She will share poems and sing songs while playing her button accordion and guitar.
The following day, June 25, she will be at Blue Heron Books at 11 a.m.
Emily & Elspeth is a queer love story that takes the reader from the streets of Mexico to the bedrooms of Vancouver.
According to publisher, Caitlin Press, “Emily & Elspeth brings you to places both intimate and unexpected: a belly where a uterus used to be; a girl matador facing off against a bull; and ‘fat, honeyed days, swollen with desire’ that risk being destroyed by the nefarious aims of a government spy.”
