Nice coverage of the event on CTV Montreal website. Apparently folks are going to have trouble finding pBook edition of the winning book.

Quote:
Thirty-year-old Montreal author Johanna Skibsrud became the youngest recipient of the $50,000 Scotiabank Giller Prize on Tuesday night, but readers may have trouble finding her winning novel, "The Sentimentalists."

That's because her Nova Scotia-based publishing house, Gaspereau Press, makes its hand-crafted books locally and can only print about 1,000 copies of "The Sentimentalists" a week.

Some bookstores across the country have been unable to get the title since the Giller short list came out Oct. 5.
It's 3rd on the list of Kobo best sellers this morning.
