A wildlife photographer’s journeys across Canada

Clare’s work as a wildlife photographer carries her from a troubled marriage into a series of encounters with life beyond home. The story ranges across Canada, including a visit to her sister’s dog rescue, where donkeys serve as a security force, and a sled journey to a camp at the Arctic Ocean’s edge. Back home, Clare’s understanding of love shifts as she faces old age. The combination of far-flung travel, family ties and changing perspectives gives the novel a distinctly Canadian frame, with its closing fireworks also rooted in that setting.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in fiction set across Canada and its varied landscapes.

Book overview

Bear With Me is the story of Clare, a wildlife photographer in a troubled marriage whose work takes her to far-flung places across Canada. Her travels bring her to an unusual personal view of life as she visits her sister, a veterinarian who runs a dog rescue project complete with security force made up of donkeys, and journeys by sled to camp at the edge of the Arctic Ocean. Later, back at home, Clare discovers the different nature of love in old age. Yet the story ends with fireworks, Canadian style.
