5.0 out of 5 stars
What's wrong with the world?,
This review is from: To Every Thing There Is a Season: A Cape Breton Christmas Story (Hardcover)
Well, for one thing, it's that no one seems to have heard of this great Christmas tale from an author whose steady excellence is almost unknown south of Canada.
MacLeod evokes a simpler time in a Canadian province that few Americans will be familiar with. But it is a Christmas story for all of us. A young boy comes to the time when Santa Claus passes from reality to parental creation. While leaving the myth behind, he presents a portrait of his entry into adulthood and of a family more worthy of affection than any red-suited visitor. There is so much schlocky Christmas fiction out there. Mac Leod gives us an honest, touching, masterful Christmas tale. Virtually all his short stories are outstanding. This one is a fine place to introduce yourself to him. |
