» silvan - a hero

Not only is he a living legend, but to me Timothy Findley is a hero because he has managed to become a mainstream author, and one of Canada's finest, without hiding his personal life. I wrote to him in delight after reading "The Piano Man's Daughter" a few years ago, and received a warm and eloquent response from him. Reading this interview, I'm encouraged to write to him again. He is not only creatively gifted, but seems like a generous and courageous personality.

Hi Van,
What you have written is indeed true -- he and his partner have been together over 40 years and he has never hidden his personal life during this time (as far as I know). I know that he makes an effort to respond to all of his mail, so by all means write him again!
