Title: Crossings Author: Betty Lambert Narrator: Emma Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 1 minute Release date: January 31, 2020 Genres: Contemporary Women Publisher's Summary: Vicky, a writer in Vancouver in the early 1960s doesn't consider herself the type of woman who would end up in a bad relationship. Struggling to come to terms with herself, she navigates an emotionally abusive relationship with Mik, a violent logger and ex-con. Mik and Vicky's physical, often violent affair offers an honest and unflinching look at relationships and female suffering. Crossings caused a furor when it was first published and was banned from some feminist bookstores. At the same time, it was widely acclaimed by critics and writers, including Jane Rule, who wrote: "This portrait of an artist as a young woman should stand beside Alice Munro's Who Do You Think You Are and Margaret Laurence's The Diviners as a testimony of the courage and cost of being a woman and a writer." Out of print for more than twenty years, this new edition of Crossings will introduce this Canadian classic - and remarkable writer - to a new generation of readers.
