'A Circle of Birds' is an impressionistic, finely wrought tale of lost memory, tangled history, despair and discovery. It is a journey through much Canadian and world history; a mind-melting descent into mental illness, a sordid yarn of death and twisted love. "This is a surprising tour-de-force, and its author should be praised for it; his vision is bleak, his language is spare, but his imagination is rich and his abilities are profuse. More, please, Mr. Trenholm." - Geist Magazine Winner of the 15th annual 3-Day Novel-Writing Contest
