William Andrews’ first novel examines life in a small PEI community in the 1940s and 50s as changes, so common in the rest of the world, begin to take hold. Using a road as an allegory, he weaves a lyrical tale of simple country people, their struggles and their joys. The story is told through the eyes of a boy called Jake: he is the witness to life on the Hook Road and the events that change that life forever. In The Grand Change the people and the world they inhabit are richly and meticulously described. William Andrews was born and raised during the forties on a mixed farm in Freetown, PEI. He left home young. He marched in the regular peace time army, fished gill net on Lake Erie, sang gospel in Maritime penal institutions, carved wood in Japan and did a lot of labour type jobs in a lot of places. He was encouraged to write while at UPEI in 1970-71. He started writing in 1995. His main writing inspiration comes from being pretty widely read. Canadian author.
