About the author
An Albertan, D.A. Barry claims the same divine right as k.d. lang: to be the incarnation of a talented but dead woman. Painter and writer Emily Carr's desire to see the heart of nature and the nature of man lives on in Barry, whose previous works have taken us from Vancouver Island to the Amazon to the grave. She also won the 1989 Commonwealth Writers Prize.
