A work of historical fiction, the novel presents a fictionalized portrayal of real-life Newfoundland politician Joey Smallwood, the political leader who brought the province into Canadian Confederation in 1949. A major literary device in the novel is the intertwining of his life, since childhood, with (fictional) journalist Sheilagh Fielding. A stage adaptation by Robert Chafe premiered in February 2015. It was nominated for the Governor General's Literary Award in 2017. (en)
