LITERATURE ALIVE!

MARION QUEDNAU
October 4 - 7:00 p.m.
Room 3343

“Literature Alive ‘88" presents a reading by Marion
Quednau, novelist from Mission B.C. Her novel
The Butterfly Chair (published by Random House)
won the W.H. Smith -_ Books in Canada - $5000
Award for the best first novel published in Canada
in 1987.

She writes:

There is a question which is invariably asked of fiction
writers, and which invariably makes me irritable, because
it makes me think a reader is trying to avoid something,
not find it. "Is ita true story?” readers seem to ask — or
do | sometimes imagine this ? -- and I create an answer
as full of directions and misdirections, implicit with truth
and aching with lies, as the landscape of the story itself.

This reading is FREE and open to the public.
