The Republic of Nothing

by Lesley Choyce
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
A small Canadian island declares its independence to the world and benign anarchy reigns. A god-like ocean deposits many a thing, yet also takes away. The 1960s blaze off shore and draw the island's inhabitants into politics, the Vietnam War, and the peace movement. Sound impossible? Not on Whalebone Island, AKA the Republic of Nothing. Where else can a dead circus elephant, a long-dead Viking, a raven-haired castaway who may be psychic, an anarchist turned politician, and refugees fleeing from the US all be part of everyday life and be embraced with such open arms? Lesley Choyce is the founder of Pottersfield Portfolio and the publisher of Pottersfield Press. A prolific writer, he hosts Off the Page with Lesley Choyce. Maritime Fiction, Humorous Fiction, Literary Fiction, Canadian Author
