Brett Hodnett
|
Born in Mississauga, Ontario, Brett moved to Gatineau, Quebec at the turn of the century where he has lived with his wife and a succession of quadrupeds since. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in biology, and a Master’s degree in genetics from the University of Toronto. When not writing, he spends more of his time than he would like trading his labour for intrinsically valueless tokens which, remarkably, others accept in exchange for food, shelter and bicycles. He is the author of the non-fiction book, Paddling With A Naturalist, and the speculative fiction novel, HUMAN.

Human
|
Speculative Fiction
A remarkable exploration of family, society, and what makes us human, HUMAN will take you from the post-apocalyptic world of the near future, to the two very different societies that emerge 15 million years later, where those few surviving individuals have evolved to become something that we might not fully recognize as human. |

It will allow you to better understand what makes nature function, and to appreciate why the things you see from your canoe are the way they are. To see nature as a biologist does. Readable and entertaining, Paddling with a Naturalist is written like a travelogue. Follow Brett through creeks and lakes, and along the portage trail, to find that at the end of your journey you have come to understand the forces that make our beautiful natural world possible. Bring it along on your next canoe trip and see nature through different eyes. |
