British Columbiana

An offbeat and funny memoir about a young woman who finds work at a remote heritage site showcasing the gold rush in British Columbia It's the strange lovechild of Susanna Moodie's Roughing It in the Bush and an episode of Lena Dunham's Girls Much of the humour comes from the juxtaposition from the old-tyme world clashing with the modern world Ultimately, Josie Teed must decide if she wants to stay and enjoy the slow pace and quirky characters of Wells, the small town where she lives, or if she should re-join fast-paced city life Josie is an emerging writer who completed her master's in sociology and now lives in Montreal
