Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Ford discusses his eagerly awaited new novel Canada. A visionary novel of vast landscapes, complex identities and fragile humanity, Canada tells the story of Dell Parsons on the run after his parents rob a bank in Montana. It has been described by the Washington Post as ‘His most elegiac and profound book yet ... Marilynne Robinson (without the theology) and Cormac McCarthy (without the gore)’.
