New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 6 x 9 inches-Essays by a Seasoned Journalist Dodi Morrison-Okanagan Reflections brings together several decades of Dodi Morrison's remarkable writing into a single volume, sure to appeal to her many long-time readers, as well as new ones."I gaze out on a wonderful stretch of sky, the hills beyond Skaha Lake, and the western mountains. I glory in the ever-changing sky. Today there is sunshine, warm on my chair even in November. Sometimes sunset brings a Tony Onley sky; sometimes it resembles a Jill Leir-Salter watercolour. Sometimes a feathery band of cloud dallies across the sky to the western hills, lingering through shades of pink, rose, lilac and eventually gray. Sometimes the cloud hovers, threatening, across the valley. But inevitably it is touched with pink as it fades to dusk." Dodi Morrison has been one of the Okanagan's most venerated columnists in the popular media for two decades. Her outspoken commentary, which has profiled famous people and covered social and political topics, has appeared in many local and national newspapers and magazines. Dodi was also a regular contributor to the CBC. A former schoolteacher, her fans include writers Sharon Butala, Edith Iglauer and none other than David Suzuki. Her sister is Governor General award winner Heather Spears. She lives in Penticton BC. 208 pp.
