Join writer, would-be Catholic priest, editor, librettist, and professor Eugene Benson as he launches his memoir The Symmetry of the Tyger, surveying 90 years of travel, adventure, and engagement at the very heart of Canadian culture. Benson's involvement in Canadian cultural affairs took place at a time when this country was becoming an important presence on the world stage. Benson's memories of many of the key figures that shaped it, including Margaret Atwood, Robertson Davies, Northrop Frye and Marshall McLuhan, are deeply insightful.
