First released in 2005 as one of Vagrant Press's inaugural titles, Lesley Crewe's debut novel, <i>Relative Happiness</i>, garnered rave reviews. Lesley's writing is fresh and funny, and her portrayal of the Cape Breton spirit--strong and wry in the face of adversity--is unwaveringly authentic. Reviews for Relative Happiness: Against the backdrop of Cape Breton's windy beaches, author Lesley Crewe delivers real people living real lives. We give her our highest kudo: we couldn't put the book down. -<i>Aloft Magazine</i> The novel is quite exceptional and shows that Crewe has the potential to become a leading author within this genre. -<i>New Brunswick Reader</i> This is Crewe's first novel and quite frankly, I'm astonished to know that. Her graceful prose and her ability to turn a familiar story into something with such raw, dramatic power are skills that many veteran novelists have yet to develop. -Halifax <i>Chronicle Herald</i>
