- Ottawa Citizen journalist and restaurant critic Peter Hum’s THE ANCESTORS ARE CALLING, about connecting with a distant homeland and heritage, in which the author discovers—by a serendipitous museum visit and newly declassified government documents—the stories of his pioneering grandparents who built a Chinese restaurant dynasty in Canada’s capital, leading him to search for his century-old village roots in Southern China and meet an extensive branch of his family he didn’t know existed, ultimately rebuilding bonds with relatives that were severed for decades, to Anna Comfort O’Keeffe at Douglas & McIntyre, for publication in spring 2028, by Bridgette Kam at Westwood Creative Artists (world English).
