Beside Still Waters by Barry Callaghan

Toronto writer Barry Callaghan's new novel takes us on a tour of the life of a war photographer as he searches for his childhood love through a war-torn African nation. The story of Adam Waters' quest moves effortlessly, and artfully, around various times and places. Short scenes flow beautifully; each one reveals exactly what it needs-and no more-to give meaning to the succeeding one.
For thirty-eight years, Barry Callaghan was a professor of contemporary literature at York University in Toronto, and is now Professor Emeritus and Distinguished Scholar at that institution. Callaghan has been awarded the Foundation For The Advancement of Canadian Letters award for fiction, the City of Toronto Award, seven National Magazine Awards, two President's Medal Awards for Excellence (NMA), the ACTRA Award for television host of the year, the Pushcart, White, and Lowell Thomas Awards in the U.S., and the inaugural W. O. Mitchell Award for a body of work. Callaghan has also been awarded honorary doctorates by the State University of New York at Buffalo, and the University of Guelph.
