Bag om Diary of a Langford Girl

Sometimes she refers to her life on the west coast as a house burning down; sometimes she refers to herself as a ghost lingering on the island...Diary of a Langford Girl is an evocative recollection of life in a small town on the southern tip of Vancouver Island; rife with mischief and magic, childhood memories and odd perceptions, the beautiful mess of young love, and the wrench of loss when thrust across the country as a teenager. A voice unhinged, recounts the angst and euphoria of coming of age with the exquisite melancholy of nostalgia. This no-holds-barred collection of poems and narratives reveal a haunting tie to the island, and the emotional fracture of leaving it behind at a young age. A dark, sardonic, and at times, startling glimpse of relationships, family dynamics and foolish shenanigans, contrasted by the softness of romanticism and humour, inviting the reader into the heart of one woman's endless journey home.
