We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we're helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.

From the publisher

Constance Beresford-Howe was born in Montreal. Her first novel, The Unreasoning Heart, was published while she was still a student. Since then, she has written eight others, including A Population of One, The Marriage Bed, Prospero’s Daughter, and Night Studies. She now divides her time between Canada and England.

From the jacket flap

First published in 1973, "The Book of Eve has become a classic. When Eva Carroll walks out on her husband of 40 years, it is an unplanned, completely spontaneous gesture. Yet Eva feels neither guilt nor remorse. Instead, she feels rejuvenated and blissfully free. As she builds a new life for herself in a boarding house on the "wrong" side of Montreal, she finds happiness and independence - and, when she least expects it, love.

Media reviews

“A delight.”
Globe and Mail

“The success of the much-loved novels of Beresford-Howe stems from their approachability.… Her writing is consistently down-to-earth and highly readable.”
Quill & Quire
