Sweet and Spicy: what's the buzz on honey infusions? | SaltWireThrough passionate love letters, journals and extensive interviews, author and investigative journalist Michael Harris recounts in his new book a remarkable love affair between one of Canada’s most widely read writers and his second wife.
“You can’t write somebody’s love story and make it into a Disney picture. It has to be the real thing and they had the real thing. That’s what struck me when I met them and subsequently talked to Claire; it was a remarkable story,” Harris added.Harris interviewed Mowat in 2013, not long before the prolific writer, environmentalist and activist died just days before his 93rd birthday. At the time of the interview, his health wasn’t good, but he remained generous with his time.
“He and Claire had an almost telepathic communication between each other. They were like two people who had become one unit. It was unbelievable to see them together.” said Harris. He added: “To be intimately in love with someone doesn’t mean perfection it means honesty and these two people were totally honest with each other.”
“Claire brought him back to love and to life, and Farley inspired her to develop her own considerable skills as a writer in her journals and in six published works. The course of true love never runs smooth, but run it did, for an incredible 54 years of love and creation,” Harris writes in the book’s introduction.
