W.O. Mitchell's critically acclaimed novel, The Kite, is a humorous yet touching story of a journalist's worst nightmare. Now, fans of the master storyteller will be delighted to discover that The Kite has been added to the BTC Audiobooks' growing Mitchell library. Adapted and narrated by Mitchell himself, this recording languished forgotten for years, after it was recorded on reeltoreel in 1989. The publication of this newly discovered and neverbeforepublished edition of the novel in audio format will not only thrill fans, but also introduce a whole new generation of readers to the rampaging Daddy Sherry, described by Margaret Laurence as a "holy terror". Set in the Prairie backwater of Shelby, Alberta, seasoned reporter and minor television celebrity David Lang arrives to write a magazine feature on the town's oldest living citizen, the 111yearold curmudgeon Daddy Sherry. Still recovering from the disappointments of a fatherless childhood, the uptight David just wants to file his story as quickly as possible and hightail it back to Toronto. But he hasn't reckoned on the cantankerous cunning of Daddy Sherry. As David chases his recalcitrant subject all over town, he begins to understand the meaning of life and finds love and happiness for the first time. This superb recording of the classic novel by one of Canada's bestloved writers coincides with the publication of a new edition of The Kite from Goose Lane Editions.
