Best Selling Books by Glen Huser

Retells the Greek myth of Persephone, abducted by Hades and taken to the Underworld as his bride, and her mother, Demeter, whose grief over losing her daughter brings about the coming of the seasons.

"Curtis tells the story of his relationship with a blind Aunt whose lover, Phillip, a Vancouver artist, died in 1917. Reading aloud to her the diary Phillip kept for a few months before his death, an obsessed Curtis examines parallels to his own life--his desire to become a good artist and to find some kind of love in his own life. But, like Harriet, he is blind in some ways--especially to the attentions of a gay friend. Main characters form a quadrangle that crosses gender and generations--with intersections that play out across Canadian cities from Vancouver to Halifax, with much of the story occurring in Edmonton. Author would prefer not have year of birth appear."--
