Gaining Ground by Joan Barfoot

Gaining Ground by Joan Barfoot

Unearthed after half a century, this radical portrait of a woman who leaves her family to live alone in a woodland cabin will pierce the heart of anybody who has ever wanted to escape.

Joan Barfoot (born 1946) is the author of eleven novels. Her books, which reviewers have celebrated as 'harrowing and hilarious' and 'gloriously subversive', have been longlisted for the Man Booker Prize and shortlisted for the Scotiabank Giller Prize. A recipient of the Marian Engel Award, she has also been a journalist during much of her career. She lives in London, Ontario, Canada.
