Book excerpt: First published in 1996 immediately following the narrow referendum victory by the Quebec Federalists, Death in October has become a Canadian classic. Out of print for many years, the book has become a collector's item, new copies selling in some quarters for well over $100! At the urging of his many fans and readers Lowell has updated and added chapters to this book and as you can see has re-printed a much more modern hard cover version. What many will find interesting is that although written more than 15 years ago, the relationship between Quebec and the rest of Canada is startlingly similar to what it was when this book was first written. In fact, writes Lowell, the premise of the plot line in this book is even more probably today that it was in 1996. Most agree that Canadians today are far less sympathetic to Quebec's demands today than ever before.
