SUMMARY:Caroline Adderson at Sunshine Coast Festival of the Written Arts

A recently separated woman relocates to a small northern town\, where she receives a life-changing visitation\, and a Russian hitman\, suffering from a mysterious lung ailment\, retrieves long-buried memories of his past. In the nineteenth century\, a disparate group of women coalesce in the attempt to aid a young girl in her escape from a hospital for the insane. These are but some of the remarkable characters who populate these stories\, all of them grappling with conflicts ranging from mundane to extraordinary. Caroline Adderson’s A Way to Be Happy considers what it means to find happiness—and how often it comes through the grace of others. \nABOUT CAROLINE ADDERSON \nCaroline Adderson is the author of five novels (A Russian Sister\, Ellen in Pieces\, The Sky Is Falling\, Sitting Practice\, and A History of Forgetting)\, two previous collections of short stories (Pleased to Meet You and Bad Imaginings)\, as well as many books for young readers. Her award nominations include the Sunday Times EFG Private Bank Short Story Award\, the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award\, two Commonwealth Writers’ Prizes\, the Governor General’s Literary Award\, the Rogers’ Trust Fiction Prize\, and the Scotiabank Giller Prize longlist. The recipient of three BC Book Prizes\, three CBC Literary Awards\, and the Marian Engel Award for mid-career achievement\, Caroline lives and writes in Vancouver.
