✦ Synopsis

In deluded your sailors, Michelle Butler Hallett brings her wry humour and imagination to two distinct and interwoven stories, embracing both the eighteenth-century New World and contemporary Newfoundland and Labrador. Past and present spark off each other to ignite whirling fires in the lives of her flawed and darkly-drawn characters. Staring down abuse, identity, friendship, and greed, deluded your sailors is a startling story of violence, loss and love. One of Canada�s most courageous and original literary voices, Michelle Butler Hallett was born in St. John�s, Newfoundland. Her work, at once striking, memorable and difficult to categorize, has been praised by Books in Canada for �economy and power.� Her first novel, Double-blind, was shortlisted for the 2007 Sunburst Award, while Sky Waves was praised as �both raucously funny and deeply troubling� and �a dynamic and shape-shifting work that redefines the project of storytelling.�
