Viking Canada is thrilled to be publishing THE PIGEON TUNNEL: Stories From My Life, a memoir by the novelist John le Carré. THE PIGEON TUNNEL, in stores September 6th, is le Carré’s first work of non-fiction, and though le Carré has spoken widely about his work and the numerous film and television adaptations of his novels, he has always been less inclined to speak about his own life experiences—until now.

(Toronto)–Penguin Canada Publishing Director Diane Turbide has acquired world rights to an urgent book that every Canadian should read. BETTERNOW: Six Big Ideas to Improve the Health of All Canadians by renowned physician Dr. Danielle Martin uses real patient histories to illustrate what works in our healthcare and what doesn’t. She proposes bold fixes that are both achievable and affordable. The deal was arranged by Chris Bucci of the McDermid Agency and the book is scheduled for release in January 2017, under the Allen Lane imprint.

The book - part memoir, part history, and complete entertainment - will be published in late fall 2016.

(Toronto) Louise Dennys, Executive Publisher and Executive Vice President, Penguin Random House Canada, has acquired Canadian rights for Ian McEwan’s new novel, Nutshell,  from Peter Straus at Rogers Coleridge & White, to be published by Knopf Canada.

Nutshell is a classic story of murder and deceit, told by a narrator with a perspective and voice unlike any in recent literature. A bravura performance, it is the finest recent work from a true master.

The likes of Gordie Howe won’t be seen again.

Some of us saw him play. Others knew him as a hero, a mentor, a family man. We at Penguin Random House Canada had the honour of working with him.

We will remember his quick smile, his sense of humour, his sense of right and wrong, and his still-impressive handshake.

Unwaveringly loved and universally respected, the legend known as Mr. Hockey will live on in the record books and in our memories.
