Book ~ "The Story So Far ..." (1997) Sheldon Currie

From Amazon ~ These stories take the reader from the sparse, tense writing of the prequel to Glace Bay Miner's Museum, through the author's other stories drawn from his Cape Breton home. This book is 11 bizarre short stories. One is The Glace Bay Miners' Museum on which the movie Margaret's Museum is based. Another story is Lauchie, Liza and Rory on which the play we saw in August is based.

Book ~ "Lauchie, Liza and Rory" (2004) Sheldon Currie

A whimsical comedy about loyalty and misplaced love set in 1940s Cape Breton and centers around Lauchie and Rory Macdonald, identical twins who share a love for the same woman, Liza. Gord and I saw this play , which was written by a former prof of mine, in August. I enjoyed the play and it was interesting to read this.
