Description
About the author
James W. Nichol is best known to CBC Radio listeners as the author of two popular and long-running mystery series: "Midnight Cab" and "Peggy Delaney." He has been writing for radio, film, television, and theatre since 1964, and is the author of the critically acclaimed play Sainte-Marie among the Hurons. His 1989 radio adaptation of The Stone Angel was so successful that he wrote a stage version, which continues to be performed in theatres across Canada. This mesmerizing radio dramatization, originally released on cassette and now in a CD edition, features such well-known actors as Janet Wright, Richard Donat, and Ted Dykstra, as well as a haunting musical score.
