Harry Boyd, a hard-bitten refugee from failure in Toronto
television, has returned to a small radio station in Yellowknife,
Northern Canada. There, in the summer of 1975, he falls in love
with a voice on air, though the real woman, Dido Paris, is both a
surprise and even more than he imagined. Dido and Harry are part of
the cast of eccentric characters who form an unlikely group at the
station. Their loves and longings, their rivalries and
entanglements, the stories of their pasts and what brought each of
them to the North, form the centre. One summer, on a canoe trip
four of them make into the Arctic wilderness, they find the balance
of love shifting, much as the balance of power in the North is
being changed by the proposed Mackenzie Valley gas pipeline,
threatening to displace Native people from their land. Hay brings
to bear her skewering intelligence into the frailties of the human
heart and her ability to tell a spellbinding story written in
gorgeous prose and laced with dark humour.
