Snow Road Station (Broché)

In the winter of 2008, as snow falls without interruption, sixty-two-year-old Lulu Blake blanks on her lines during a Beckett play. Fleeing the theatre, she arrives at the familiar Snow Road Station, a barely discernible dot on the map of Ontario. Out of work and humiliated, she enters the last act of her life wondering what she can make of her diminished self While she thinks she wants peace, it turns out she wants more.
Looming in the background is that autumn's global financial meltdown, while in the foreground family and friends animate a round of weddings, sap harvests, love affairs, and personal turmoil. At the centre of it all is the lifelong friendship between Lulu and Nan. As the two women contemplate growing old, they surrender certain hard-held dreams and confront the limits of the choices they've made and the messy feelings that kept them apart for decades.
