Divided Societies: Giving Tuesday with Jane Urquhart
📚 An Evening with Jane Urquhart

🌟 About the Book:
In this masterful narrative, Urquhart takes readers to rural Saskatchewan, weaving the poignant story of Emer McConnell.

Praised as “an incandescent novel” by Charlotte Gray, this is a story that lingers in both heart and mind.
