After I moved to British Columbia, I had the great pleasure of getting to know Karl and Christy personally (not only as one of my husband George Bowering's publishers, but also as dear friends). What was evident last night, an evening celebrating the Sieglers and their inestimably enormous contribution to the Canadian literary scene through four decades of Talonbooks, was that the combination of highly professional publishing standards and personal friendships is second nature to this amazing pair.
