The fact that this is resonating with so many people and has been received so warmly and to be on Canada Reads is legitimately a dream come true. I put everything I liked into it and things that I thought were important and things that I love when they happen in stories, all of that was distilled in there. I wrote Hench for me and for my friends and for a very small, beloved target audience. Natalie Zina Walschots ( NZW): I don't want this to come across as cliché, but it barely seems real. Not only is it your debut novel, it's one of the few genre novels to make it onto Canada Reads. Paul Sun-Hyung Lee (PSHL): Hench is your first novel. ![]() You can watch their conversation above or read an excerpt below. Lee and Walschots got together virtually to discuss the great Canadian book debate and Hench. The debates will be hosted by Ali Hassan and will be broadcast on CBC Radio One, CBC TV, CBC Gem and on CBC Books. Canada Reads will take place March 8-11, 2021. ![]()
