Extraordinary
Extraordinary is a compact literary novel by Canadian author David Gilmour. Over the course of a Saturday evening, a man meets with his older half-sister Sally at her request. As they revisit their shared and separate histories, their conversation becomes a moving examination of siblings, parenthood, unexpected turns in life and the difficult choices surrounding the end of life.
Published in 2013 by Patrick Crean Editions under HarperCollins Publishers Ltd., Extraordinary was longlisted for the 2013 Scotiabank Giller Prize. Gilmour had previously received the 2005 Governor General’s Literary Award for Fiction for A Perfect Night to Go to China.
This hardcover copy is personally inscribed “For Silvia” and signed by David Gilmour in blue ink on the title page, with “Toronto” written beneath. It includes its original dust jacket, now housed in clear removable protective plastic.
The book is in Very Good condition, with very minor age-related page toning and light exterior handling or edge wear. The jacket and spine present well in the protector, with no major exterior damage visible in the supplied views. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.
