About the Book

Author Joseph Boyden makes his debut as a novelist with this Today Book Club pick set during World War I. Moving and tragic, Three Day Road is a profound work that exposes the lasting traumas of war.

Cree Indians Xavier Bird and Elijah Whiskeyjack are lifelong best friends from the wilderness of Hudson Bay. Together, they enlist in the Canadian Army in 1915, eager to become heroes. Seasoned moose hunters, they are quickly recognized for their extraordinary accuracy with a rifle and promoted to snipers. But the horrors they must endure in combat begin to eat them alive. In time, only one of them--nightmare plagued, one-legged, and desperately addicted to morphine--will return home to his last remaining relative.

This harrowing, yet ultimately redemptive work shows how those who survive war carry the devastation with them for the rest of their lives.

"Friendship is riven with resentment and war is stripped of glory in this remarkable, wrenching novel, the work of a gifted storyteller."--Publishers Weekly, starred review



About the Author :
Joseph Boyden grew up in Willowdale, Ontario. His first two novels, Three Day Road and Through Black Spruce won several awards, including the Roger's Writers Trust Prize, the Canadian Authors Association Book of the Year, and the Libris Book of the Year. He teaches Canadian literature and creative writing at the University of New Orleans and splits his time between Louisiana and Canada. Robert Ramirez came to audiobook narration fresh from his MFA in classical theater. Initially answering a casting call for a narrator who spoke Spanish, Robert has used his Mexican-American background to imbue authentic flavor and dialogue in audio titles. His powerful command of language and rich voice reflect his interest in dialects. Ramirez is the winner of eight AudioFile Earphones Awards. Ruth Ann Phimister has appeared off Broadway and in numerous regional productions, including Life with Father with Robert Reed. She has also worked in television, film, and commercial voice-over.
