Woah, that came up fast.

Alright. For the third round, team "Maybe you'll learn to drive in Hell" picks, in the Canadian Lit category, What The Crow Said by Robert Kroetsch.



I got to see Kroetsch read from this back when I was in university and it blew me away. This is a book I go back to whenever I need inspiration, whenever I need my head cleared, or if I'm a long way from home.

Kroetsch has a lot of great novels (The Studhorse Man and Gone Indian are my other favorites) and his poetry is a great way to get people who don't like poetry to see the other side. But this novel is the winner. It's the best novel about Alberta out there.
