The Forest Lover |
This novel about Canadian artist, Emily Carr, richly describes the sight and smell of the vast forests of British Columbia. One senses the tension emanating from Carr's straitlaced and God fearing family who strongly disapprove of her deep affinity with the aboriginal people, and of her fascination with their culture. For a while Carr studied art in Paris but her heart and soul were on the West Coast from where her greatest inspiration came.
