Cowboy - A Novel

Informationen zum Autor Louis Hamelin burst onto the literary scene in 1989 with his first novel, La Rage , which won the Governor General's Literary Award.

This is Jean Paul Murray's first published literary translation. Previously, he published two translations, Dead-End Democracy? , by Yves Leclerc, and Hello, World! , by Jacques HÈbert. Jean Paul Murray lives in Old Chelsea, Quebec, works in the Senate of Canada, and is English translating co-ordinator for the magazine Cite libre.
