When Erika Drake, of the Westmount Drakes, met and fell in love with Marc Reiser, a Jew from northern Ontario, their respective worlds were turned upside down. Set against the backdrop of the first three years of the Second World War, Earth and High Heaven captured the hearts and minds of its generation and helped to shape the more diverse and inclusive culture we have today. Published in 1944, this classic novel was very timely; it spoke of the prejudices of its time, when Gentiles and Jews did not mix in society. Earth and High Heaven was the most successful novel of its time, winning many awards and prizes, including the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award in 1945 (an award founded to reward books that exposed racism or explored the richness of human diversity). It was translated into eighteen languages and the film rights were purchased by Samuel Goldwyn for a remarkable $100,000. Earth and High Heaven was the first Canadian novel to top the New York Times bestseller list for the better part of a year.

Ready to indulge yourself in queer confessional fiction? The first three books in Giselle Renarde's "Lesbian Diaries" are now available in one collection! Ariadne's Diary Ariadne is desperate for love, and she wants her teacher to give it to her. When Ariadne's grades slip into the danger zone, the buxom Ms. Bambini offers up some most unusual tutoring sessions. Ariadne never imagined her life would head down such a torrid path, but will Ms. Bambini's help become Ariadne's downfall? Bridie's Diary Bridie never expected to find herself in this position at midlife: leaving her husband, purchasing her childhood home, falling in love with her tenant. Ness is everything Bridie is not. She's young and bold and artsy and trans. But when Bridie's best friend shows up, she's torn between fresh possibilities and familiar passions. Will Bridie choose the old or the new? Or will life choose for her? Cosima's Diary Cosima is a paid unicorn. No, not the mythical creature, though women like Cosima are almost as rare--that's why she's so much in demand. Cosima consorts with married couples. It's not just a job, to her. She thinks of it as a calling. That's why she's so torn when she meets Lenore: part-time barista, part-time nurse, full-time girl of Cosima's dreams. Lenore's not so sure she wants to date a woman she has to share. Can Cosima choose between the vocation she loves and the woman she wants? Lesbian fiction from award-winning queer Canadian author Giselle Renarde.
