🎉 Happy Pub Day to Thomas Trofimuk and his sixth novel, the mind-bending, delightful, heart-wrenching "Saudade". Get your copy now at a bookstore near you! buff.ly/GrSB9fO #NeWestPress #NeWestSpring2026 #Saudade #ReadCanadian

A physical book held in a hand. Book Cover: Saudade by Thomas Trofiumuk. On a purplish-blue background, a tarot card filled with small hints of the novel. Mountains, wine bottles, the face of Death hidden the pattern.

We got some gorgeous book mail at the office today! Our friends at #LaPeuplade will be publishing the French translation of Matthew Tétreault’s #HoldYourTongue. Keep an eye out for its release on their website! 🦬💙 🔗: buff.ly/4jtCubO

Three copies of a book called Tiens Ta Langue by Matthew Tétreault are stacked on a black backdrop. The cover of the book features a Métis-inspired artwork of a human figure with wings seemingly speaking an orange blob.
