Canon-ized

The following article appeared recently in The Brooklyn Paper
Canon-ized
By John Varmus
“Name another author who moved to New York at age 26 to learn English and started his writing career with a grammar course at NYU. It doesn’t happen too often — but neither do novels like “Tales from the Town of Widows,” the debut by James Canon, a former Williamsburg resident who will return to the borough for a reading next week. “Brooklyn has the largest, most vibrant community of artists in the New York area,” Canon told GO Brooklyn. “I’m very excited to do a reading where it’s at.” Set in a fictional Colombian town, the book follows the lives of men who are all killed or “recruited” by guerillas, and the women who are left to fend for themselves. Along the way, Canon introduces us to colorful characters, including an ample-bottomed magistrate, a stern schoolmistress and a cow named Perestroika.”

This the sophistication of an author’s writing in addition to comprehension of the word which name that era with its name. James Canon no doubt wrote excellent and displayed the issues of women in an outstanding manner that ever novel reader got Canon-ized. The novel Tales for the Town of Widows is not doubt leads the way and demonstrate the complete picture of the tale in comprehensive words. Before adopting web site design as profession and joining a web hosting company, I used to read novel regularly. Yet novels are still my first choice in my leisure.
