Please join Carellin Brooks on Thursday April 30 to celebrate the Vancouver launch of her novel One Hundred Days of Rain, which Publishers' Weekly calls "a memorably profound and stylish portrait of love’s complications.”

In prose by turns haunting and crystalline, Carellin Brooks’ One Hundred Days of Rain enumerates an unnamed narrator’s encounters with that most quotidian of subjects: rain.

Is there a worse city in which to suffer a vindictive, litigated break up than unrelentingly sodden Vancouver? In these one hundred intimate chapters, Carellin Brooks has convinced me no. Her forbearing heroine bikes through torrents, dodges puddles, keeps moving through bitterness and weather. Nobody, not even the rain, has such nerve.
—Caroline Adderson, author of Ellen in Pieces
