Editorial Reviews
SM: You work for three major Canadian publishers and Canadian culture definitely plays a role in your work. How important is it to you to keep Canada in your work? NGM: I've tried many times to become as American as possible. But the paperwork, the demand for me in the States is just not a realityor a cerebral blip on anyone's radar. Canada is my home and I feel that I can help future generations understand why literature can be exciting and fun and also educational. I've been in the business this long I don't see a way out. I know too much. Like Jason Bourne.
