Did you know that Ernest Hemingway wrote for the Toronto Star? The iconic cigar-smoking, bull-fighting American writer spent two separate stints living in Canada. It was partly while living and working in Toronto that he developed his stripped-down, sparse writing style. Author and Hemingway expert Terry Fallis reflects on the writer's larger than life reputation and his time spent in Toronto ahead of the upcoming International Hemingway Society Conference. Plus, CBC producer Christine Pagulayan talks about the latest trend to hit the world of romance. 


Books discussed on this week's show include:

And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie

Little Face by Sophie Hannah

Before You Go to Sleep by S. J. Watson

Life After Life by Kate Atkinson

It’s Not What You Think by Clare Mackintosh
