Ottawa-based author, Graeme Truelove, speaks about his new biography about former NDP Member of Parliament, Svend Robinson. The event will include audience discussion of Robinson’s impact on public policy and his legacy. Copies of Truelove’s book will be available for sale and light refreshments will be served following the event. About Svend Robinson: A Life in Politics: In this in-depth biography, Graeme Truelove explores an accomplished life and career, including Robinson’s difficult childhood, his growing realization of his own sexuality, and the bipolar diagnosis which followed his baffling, career-ending theft of a diamond ring. A portrait emerges of a complex figure – driven, gifted, visionary and flawed – who challenged his country and continues to make his indelible mark on the world. (New Star Books, 2013)
