Bruce Bishop, Author
With four novels under his belt, Bruce W. Bishop, a gay fiction author and freelance writer from Nova Scotia, has made a name for himself.
A bizarre but true incident from a century ago inspired his debut, Unconventional Daughters (2020), set in Yarmouth, N.S.
The interlinked Uncommon Sons (2021) followed, about a gay dining room manager at a large Halifax hotel in 1935-36. While becoming involved with a married man, he also encounters two mysterious deaths at his workplace.
The third in the trilogy is Undeniable Relations (2022), a family drama that involves another tale of betrayal, racism, and homophobia in Nova Scotia during the mid-1950s.
As described by one critic, Bishop’s latest release, Grow up, Rory Rafferty, is a “delicious book” set in Toronto at the peak of the disco era in 1979. Rory is joined by a memorable cast of characters as he attempts to navigate big-city life and his own identity.
Bishop’s books are available on Amazon and Kobo and in select booksellers.
