David Homel and Fred A. Reed, Montreal, Wildlives.
(Douglas & McIntyre; distributed by HarperCollins Canada) (ISBN 978-1-55365-409-4)
English translation of Champagne by Monique Proulx (Les Éditions du Boréal)

David Homel and Fred A. Reed have produced a richly vibrant prose that captures the pulses and rhythms, the energy, and the teeming profusion of Monique Proulx's powerful evocation of the life-death forces at work in the wilderness of a Laurentian landscape on which human beings intrude with haunting consequences.
