When it was first published a decade ago,
The Perfection of the Morning
catapulted Sharon Butala into literary stardom, causing the
Toronto Star
to crown her as "one of this country's true visionaries."
At once a meditation on the world of nature and a personal and spiritual exploration of the roots of creativity,
is Sharon Butala's search for a connection with the prairie that encompassed and often overwhelmed her.
More resonant today than ever before,
is a book for Butala's many loyal readers, as well as the perfect introduction for new fans, presented in a a beautiful gift edition with a new preface and elegant cover flaps.
