In case you haven't been paying attention and you've been enjoying the final days of summer, TIFF is coming. Yup, our annual Toronto International Film Festival kicks off on September 8 and brings with it a flurry of celebrity sightings, parties and more caffeine and cocktails than will be consumed for probably the rest of the year. But, if you can't make it to any of the premieres or just can't handle the crowds (we get it) or just want to form your opinions prior to your movie screenings, read the books that inspired the movies first.
Unless by Carol Shields
The final Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by the author, this book follows Reta Winters as she tries to bring her daughter back home and uncover why she left in the first place and how she wound up mute, panhandling on a street in Toronto. This movie promises to be emotional and at times raw, not unlike most mother-daughter relationships.
