His newest book is Still at the Cottage
Still at the Cottage is as warm and wistful as an evening spent by the lake, among friends and family, amid the low glow of a long lingering summer's day. Funny, reflective and always insightful, this is Charles Gordon at the top of his game.

Charles Gordon is the funniest writer I know. He's so Stephen Leacock - just check out the chapter about 'the Royal Commission on Cottages' - that Leacock himself would delight in this welcome return visit to Cottage Country. Still at the Cottage is even funnier than Gordon's brilliant At the Cottage, a necessary update to a Canadian phenomenon that seems to change every time a screen door slams or, heaven forbid, a cellphone rings. So top up that drink, head for the hammock - and be prepared to fall off laughing!
