In France Daigle's Governor General's Award-winning novel, Just Fine, the townsfolk of Dieppe dream of escape from the insular, predictable cadences of life in Acadia, and, each in their own often touching and hilarious way, changes the course of their lives. In this extraordinary sequel, we follow many of the same characters in their explorations of their newly gained freedom. And whereas Just Fine had as its central element water, rivers, deltas, springs, and movement from inner landscapes to the sea and open spaces, this book has as its central element air, wind, planes, music, and voices from around the world, underscoring the ideas of liberty and sensuality that motivate the book. A rich, sweeping, and delicate exploration of how we create and then employ our freedom in relation to those we love, A Fine Passage secures France Daigle's place as one of Canada's most intriguing writers.Daigle, France is the author of 'Fine Passage A Novel' with ISBN 9780887846816 and ISBN 0887846815.
