Letters and Arts Society hosts Elizabeth Hay.
Feb. 25 2010
Elizabeth Hays novel Late Nights on Air (McClelland and Stewart 2008) won the Scotiabank Giller Prize and makes her an excellent guest for the Fanshawe College Letters and Arts Society since the College hosts its own radio station and Broadcasting Programs. Her other works include A Student of Weather (McClelland and Stewart 2001), which was a finalist for the Giller Prize and Ottawa Book Award; Garbo Laughs (McClelland and Stewart 2004), which won the Ottawa Book Award and was a finalist for the Governor Generals Award; and Small Change (stories, McClelland and Stewart 2000). In 2002, she received the prestigious Marian Engel Award. Elizabeth Hay lives in Ottawa, and we are thrilled to have her visit Fanshawe College.
