101 Letters to a Prime Minister: The Complete Letters to Stephen Harper | Yann Martel
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
From the mailbox of the Prime Minister's Office to your bookshelf, a list of more than 100 books that every Canadian should read. This largely one-sided correspondence from the "loneliest book club in the world" is a compendium for bibliophiles and those who follow the Canadian political scene. Smart, subversive, signed, sealed, and now available to you...even if your address is not 80 Wellington Street.

What Is Stephen Harper Reading?: Yann Martel's Recommended Reading for a Prime Minister and Book Lovers of All Stripes | Yann Martel

This is the spirit in which Yann Martel began sending a book and letter every week to the Canadian prime minister, a person who professed to dislike reading. It seems like a great concept for beginning a bookclub: essential reading for those who govern a modern democracy. Who's in? #canlit

This book has been great for reading recommendations - my TBR list has added a few great sounding reads! I also enjoy the beginning of the novel, which gives the readers "Harper's" responses. Overall, this book is both easy and enjoyable.

I admit to skimming a bit but I have to applaud Mr. Martel for his dedication in trying to educate, or at least broaden the horizons of, our ex PM Stephen Harper. Why? "Because your dreams may become my nightmares."
