Happy New Year! Today we are visited by three favourite singer songwriters who share with us their reading recommendation. Shawn Tavenier, Lynn Miles, and Doug McArthur have each selected a book, and will tell you why you should read it too! We'll end the show with a little music from these three talented songwriters. You'll enjoy their descriptions of the books, the conversation, and where that conversation sometimes leads.

Three wonderful singer songwriters, each reviewing a book for you. Catch why they love these books, and why you will too. Shawn Tavenier, Lynn Miles, and Doug McArthur sharing their love of literary works, and ending the show with a song from each.
Shawn's choice: Margaret Atwood's most recent collection of poetry, Dearly. Powerful and beautiful are just some of the adjectives Shawn uses to describe this body of work.
Lynn Mile's choice: The Overstory, by Richard Powers; if you love trees and are concerned about nature, if you love beautiful writing, this is for you.
Doug McArthur's choice : The Tain. which tells the ancient story of a great cattle-raid, the invasion of Ulster. The hero of the tale is Cuchulainn, the Hound of Ulster, who resists the invaders single-handed while Ulster's warriors lie sick.
