What if a writing guide could also be entertaining and funny? “The Cobra and the Key,” by Sam Shelstad, is just that. Brilliantly funny and slightly unhinged, this creative writing guide is How Fiction Works by James Wood meets Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov. @touchwooded

How cute! Spotted books from @HHPublishing, @rmbooks and @TouchWoodEd beautifully displayed at The Modern Mercantile in Victoria this weekend✨❤️😍📖

@esfletcher The Cobra and the Key by Sam Shelstad. A bit weird but uproariously funny novel about a writer trying to write a literary guide. Short bites of chapters perfect for picking up and putting down at random.

[The British Columbia Review (formerly Ormsby) @booksinbc]

#BookReview: E.J. Hughes by Robert Amos “Hughes’ love of nature and the communities of the island shine as a record of twentieth century settlers in this lushly illustrated book” @TouchWoodEd
