Atlantic Book Awards gala in Moncton tonight
Good luck to shortlisted author Michael Newton, whose Seanchaidh ne Coille – Memory Keeper of the Forest: Anthology of Scottish Gaelic Literature of Canada (CBUP 2015) is up for the Atlantic Book Award for Scholarly Writing this evening in Moncton, NB (April 27, 2016).
Memory Keepers was featured at three book festival events earlier this week (April 24, 25, 26), with a performance of excerpts along with Nova Scotia poet Lewis MacKinnon (Rudan Mì-bheanailteach is an Cothroman, CBUP 2014), in Sydney, Halifax and Charlottetown.
Michael was interviewed on CTV Morning Live on April 25 (link to the piece here 4:42) and on CBC Mainstreet PEI just before the show in Charlottetown. We hope to have a link to the interview.
Oh, and, congratulations and best of luck to those other thirty-odd books shortlisted for Atlantic Book Awards tonight.
