About The Author

Alyson Hope

Alyson Hope is a writer who currently lives in Montreal, the island of Tiohtià:ke – unceded land of the Kanien’kehá:ka Nation.

In 2014, Hope received her Master’s Degree in literature from the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi. Based largely on ecocritical theory, her thesis examines the multi-faceted relationship between nature and the characters in John Steinbeck’s East of Eden. Hope’s love and respect for the natural world is what drew her to the study of ecocriticism.

The Smell of Rain, published by the brilliant folks of Renaissance Press, is Hope’s debut fictional novel.
