The Anansi Girls celebrated the near-conclusion of the Anansi Girls and the Art of Book Club Maintenance contest with a series of readings last night at Toronto bar The Ossington. If you’d like to win a visit from one of these fantastic authors or a complete set of their books, enter now! Contest closes November 30, 2009.

All five books are also now available at a sweetly discounted 30% from our website, along with every other book we sell. That’s right — every single book available on anansi.ca (aside from audiobooks and special editions) is 30% off from now until January 1, 2010. Fabulous.

The Anansi Girls are:

Lisa Moore (February)
Shani Mootoo (Valmiki’s Daughter)
Emily Schultz (Heaven is Small)
Karen Solie (Pigeon)
Zoe Whittall (Holding Still For As Long As Possible)
