Description

Rescued from the dangers he faces in a Latin American military dictatorship, writer Carlos Romero Estevez is given a new life in Vancouver. His rescuers, a benevolent group devoted to aiding oppressed writers, believe they‘ve found a poster-boy. Carlos things he‘s found a new life, new freedom, and new, powerful friends. But soon everyone‘s illusions are dispelled, and Carlos finds life in exile to be a new kind of prison.

Shortlisted for the Governor-General‘s Literary Award for Fiction and now available in trade paperback format for the first time, Exile is the work of an author in full control of her considerable talents. Award-winning author Ann Ireland is the author of two previous novels: A Certain Mr. Takahashi (1985 - now available from The Dundurn Group), and The Instructor (1996). She teaches at Ryerson University, and is a past-president of PEN Canada.
