Terry Fallis - Best Laid Plans

I was flipping through my Saturday Globe and Mail yesterday, as usual leaving the great Books section until the end.  Towards the end of the 16 page Books section I stumbled upon the brief weekly section entitled “Paperbacks” that provides quick descriptions of recent trade paperback books of note.  I was pleasantly surprised to see that TBLP made the cut this week.  Here’s the description they offered:

“Self-published and surprise winner of the Stephen Leacock award, Fallis’s wicked political satire stars a disillusioned Ottawa speechwriter and a crusty Scots engineering professor.”

Short, but definitely sweet.  I’ll take “wicked political satire” from the Globe and Mail any day.
