     Out of the Interior: The Lost Country
By Harold Rhenisch

Extending the forms of autobiography, Rhenisch explores the immigrant experience in the orchard gardens of the Okanagan. The search for paradise in the new land, its discovery and loss, are portrayed through the experiences of a young boy struggling against the authoritarianism of patriarchy. This prose memoir helps to fill a gap in the history of twentieth-century Canada. Prose of unrivalled intensity and beauty. Now in a 2nd edition.

"...The best thing to come out of the Okanagan in years." — Charles Lillard, Times-Colonist
