Is your giftee’s coffee table looking a little bare within a home otherwise full of colour and culture? Dress up their living room AND their tea-time conversations with 111 West Coast Literary Portraits (Mother Tongue Publishing) by Barry Peterson who delivers the who’s who of both emerging and well-known west coast authors. Included within are photographer Blaise Enright’s intimate portraits of literary stars like Marilyn Dumont, Al Purdy, Alice Munro and more in the comfort of their own personal spaces, giving us deeper insights into their lives and the influences that have lead to the body of work that represents this iconic region of the country.
Give your geek something to get excited about this holiday season! Robert Pasternak’s Place Into Being (At Bay Press) innovates the comic book form that lovers of the genre know so well. Instead, readers can expect to be pushed to the edge of those familiarities and given an entirely new form of art – a crown jewel, whose beauty is found in its sequential and cerebral mind benders. Best enjoyed during a 4:20pm snack break. * * *111 West Coast Literary Portraits  and  Place Into Being are 15% off until December 13th, and buying these or any of our Season’s Readings books during this time gets you a stack of our Season’s Readings postcard to gift with your books.Stay tuned for more giftable books tomorrow and follow along on  Twitter,  Facebook, and  Instagram with the hashtag #ALUseasonsreadings.Â
