Excerpt
Hair Hat

Buy

Michael Bryson, of The Danforth Review, talks to Carrie about Hair Hat, uncovering characters, and the longing of young women.

Jude Doble interviews Carrie for the University of Waterloo's alumni magazine. The instant glow of the recently published is apparent here. Note: and does not last.

Jeet Heer's review of Hair Hat, first published in National Post, is astute and academic (in a good way) and will probably go down in Carrie's personal history as the best review ever. Even though Jeet can't spell Carrie's last name to save his life.

Marcie McCauley posts a gem of a review online, comparing Hair Hat to Virginia Woolf.

Andrea Kerswill interviews Carrie for the University of Waterloo's student newspaper, the Imprint, while Carrie's children watch the Teletubbies.

James O'Hearn talks to Carrie about Hair Hat at Penguin Canada's head office, and the interview is posted online in audio format. Carrie's pretty sure it includes a minor tiff over whether or not Alice Munro uses foul language in her stories (Carrie says she does). You never know where these things are going to go.

Harry Froklage talks to Carrie about the lasting influence of great teachers. (Note: the link is in PDF format).
