The Write Stuff - Claire Cameron

Award-winning author Claire Cameron was born in Toronto in 1973. Her writing had appeared in the New York Times and The Globe and Mail. She is currently a staff writer at The Millions. The Library has just acquired her third novel, The Last Neanderthal. It's the enthralling story of two women separated by millenia, but linked by an epic journey that will transform them both. Linked across the ages by their shared experience of early motherhood, both stories examine the often taboo corners of women's lives. Claire lives in Toronto with her husband and two children.
