Shelf Life has called Adam’s Peak “a pure joy to read from beginning to end.” The review goes on to say, “Heather Burt has created a Canadian classic that deserves to be read by those who enjoy a book that not only entertains, but stimulates serious thinking.”
Following up on last year’s article, the South Delta Leader provides an update on Adam’s Peak and Heather Burt’s other writing projects, including a play and a new novel, here.
Next month, Heather will be taking part in the Kootenays portion of the BC Book Prizes tour. Her travel-mates will be David Jones (author of Baboon) and Meg Tilly (author of Porcupine), both nominated for the Sheila A. Egoff Children’s Literature Prize, as well as Rita Wong (author of Forage), nominated for the Dorothy Livesay Poetry Prize.
The tour will include library and school readings in Trail, Nelson, Creston, Cranbrook, and Castlegar.
