We Were the Bullfighters, based on Ernest Hemingway's four-month stint as a staff reporter at the Toronto Daily Star, is a masterful blend of fact and fiction. After researching Hemingway's newspaper coverage of Norman "Red" Ryan's daring 1923 escape from Kingston Penitentiary, Toronto author Marianne Miller decided that the facts didn't capture the emotional hearts of Hemingway or Ryan. An entry that Hemingway made in a notebook saying that he was considering writing a novel about Ryan convinced her to turn her hand to fiction to depict the men behind the characters. The result is a page-turner, and my favorite read of 2024!

Not according to Olivia Brodie, who was running an errand on the morning of the robbery when she saw two men behaving suspiciously near the burgled home. Two white men. Probably best known for her 1890s-era Detective Murdoch Mysteries on which the Murdoch Mysteries TV series is based, Jennings focuses on Toronto in the late 1930s in her current series. Those were years when the world was still reeling from the War to End All Wars and in the grip of the Great Depression. The books describe the poverty and the racial tensions in Toronto. The settings aren’t pretty, but they bring the city I live in to life. I’m fascinated by the glimpse into its past…
