Publisher Description

Verena Berger lives the typical European twentieth century immigrantdream. In 1979, she and her husband, Willy, moved - speaking littleto no English - from a densely populated Switzerland to Central British Columbia. Verenas collection of creative non-fiction writings include their experiences as new Canadians living on a remote rural property -where they accumulated a yard full of goats and pigs before building afence, and had children before running water - and other comical ESL (English as a second language) situations. Immigrants first, second or third generation will relate to these humorous and heartwarming recollections. Verenas writing captures the life of a European urban immigrant to the wilds of Canada. At first overwhelmed by the size of the country, she fell in love with it. Her stories are funny and moving. An excellent read. Ann Walsh, author of The Barkerville Mystery Trilogy and other stories. Bringing to mind the likes of Erma Bombeck, Verena Bergers slice of-life stories are unique and heart warming, hilarious and thought provoking. A throughly compelling read. Donna Milner, author of After River and The Promise of Rain. Kool-Aidand Cariboo Stew Cover Art: Oliver BergerCover Photo: Williams Lake River Valley Trail
