Alexander, orphaned as a child by a horrific tragedy, has nevertheless gained some success in the world. Even his older brother, Calum, a nearly destitute alcoholic living on Toronto&#8217;s skid row, has been scarred by another tragedy. But, like all his clansman, Alexander is sustained by a family history that seems to run through his veins. And through these lovingly recounted stories-wildly comic or heartbreakingly tragic-we discover the hope against hope upon which every family must sometimes rely.<\/p>\n<p>Alistair MacLeod musters all of the skill and grace that have won him an international following to give us\u00a0No Great Mischief, the story of a fiercely loyal family and the tradition that drives it.<\/p>\n<p>Come on in and check out our great selection of books, magazines, DVD\u2019s, Blu-rays, Audiobooks, French books, and more.\u00a0 And don\u2019t forget our awesome Children\u2019s collection!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Wawa Public Library will be hosting Coffee Break for Alzheimer&#8217;s from September 17th\u2013 September 21st, 2018.\u00a0 All coffee sales this week will be donated to the Alzheimer\u2019s Society and there will be treats available throughout the week!\u00a0Coffee is only $1.00 each.\u00a0 Anyone who makes a donation of $5.00 or more will have their name &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[992],"class_list":["post-15442","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-community","tag-between-the-covers"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-18 08:12:37","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15442","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15442"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15442\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15443,"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15442\/revisions\/15443"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15442"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15442"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wawa-news.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15442"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
