his father made 24 years ago, a young Westmounter is getting his feet wet in the real-estate development business in the Laurentians.Shane Brady is planning to build a luxurious home ncar the Mont Tremblant ski resort-\u2014and getting his hands on prime lakefront real estate has not been a problem.Brady 1s currently selling finished lots as part of the company's second phasc of development by the family company, Tribec Developers, along the shores of Lac Desmarais, just over an hours drive north of Montreal.The land\u20141.000 acres which completely surround the lake\u2014 was bought in the 1970s by Tribec president Noel Patric Brady, who saw a bright future for the Mont Tremblant arca.This intuition recently paid off when the Intrawest Corp, à Icad- ing North American resort company, announced a $1.4-billion capt- tal investment in the Mont Tremblant Resort, immediately increasing the demand for nearby land.Tribec recently opened an office in New York to deal with enquiries from the Umited States.Brady.who lives on Victoria Avenue, graduated from Selwyn House and received an MBA from Long Island University before joining his father at Tribec mn 1988.For skicrs, Lac Desmarais is located six kilometres southwest of the Mont Tremblant ski resort and cven closer to Gray Rocks.There is no shortage of summer activities either, although Brady pointed out that no motor boats arc allowed on the lake.This, he said, serves a dual purpose\u2014t will preserve the peaceful atmosphere while keeping the water clean.Brady is certain that golf will be Building permits

to National Library in Ottawa (Continued from page 1) thing remotely literary will be passed on to the National Library and then sold at the Canadian Book Exchange, where they will be picked up by another library which would be glad to have them.\u201d At a meeting Monday, WMA members said there is still a high level of concern about the Westmount library two years after a multimlhion-dollar expansion project was completed.The group will be writing to City Hall to request another meeting with the library committee to discuss book weeding and discarding, exhibition policy and lack of communication with the public.The shipped books include runs of literary journals such as University of Toronto Quarterly.Queen's Quarterly, Dalhousie Review, Tamarack Review and a French-Canadian magazine scries as well as old debates of the House of Commons, Johnston said.Library director Caroline Thibodeau said the material was not retained because the periodicals were not being used and the government documents are available on the Internet and on CD- Rom.Some books might appeal to limited but appreciative audiences, argued Sherbrooke Street resident Grace Prince who looked through the discarded volumes with Johnston.\u201c1 came across a book of maps called Our Nations Capital.It's a very rare map which I'm sure any urban planner would love to take à look at and any library would kill to have.\u201d the former librarian commented.Thibodeau said the weeding of the books in the basement, estimated at more than 10,000 volumes this spring.had been recently fimished.The ongoing weeding of the regular collection continues, QSPELL awards gala (Continued from page 1) the award which is sponsored by the Federation of English-lan- guage Writers of Quebec (FEWQ).It is dedicated to

recent signing at Chapters bookstore, Carole Epstein read a description of Westmount from her new book, Perilous Relations.\u201cWestmount is just a vertical residential arca with the house prices climbing as the hill rises.And it is only a hill.\u201d she chuckled as she recalled looking up to sec the Mayor of Westmount, Peter Trent, standing there listening.The crime scene in her latest mystery in the Perilous series takes place in Westmount and the descriptions of the people and places will ring a familiar tone with its residents.Epstein began her writing career after retiring as President of Canada Belt and Bag.\u201c1 suddenly found that 1 had a lot of time on my hands and so | decided to try to write a book,\u201d she said.\u201cThe first one was just for fun.It was like a sweater that | knit without the last sleeve but it didn\u2019t matter.But the sccond one was work because | was aware of all the mistakes that | had made in the first.\u201d The Perilous series of mysteries and her main character, Barbara Simons, are her own creations, She is now almost finished her third book in the series and plans to write at least a fourth.\u201cI want to write a book in cach of the four scasons in Montreal.\u201d she said.Her latest book was set in the spring.Epstein said that she will continue to write \u201cuntil I run out of \u2018perilouses\u2019 or my publisher tells me \u201cenough.\u201d Both set in Westmount Both of her books, Perilous Friends being the first in the series, arc set in Westmount because she's familiar with it and she added that \u201cthe people in my second book wouldn't live anywhere clse.\u201d In both of her books, Epstein said that she concentrated on a particular cultural communi- Second author Epstein.ty.\u201cIt 1s fun to take a group of people, play with them, and manipulate them.\u201d Epstein is no stranger to Westmount.She used to live here, her brother and all her friends still reside here, and Greene Avenue continues to be one of her favorite haunts.\u201cWestmount translates well onto paper,\u201d she replied when asked why she chose the city as the setting for her book.\u201cYou have to write about the things that you are familiar with because you still have to invent so much in your book,\u201d she added.\u201cBut you can\u2019t make mistakes when describing the area.\u201d She admits that the house described in her book does not really exist on Belmont Avenue.\u201c[ went walking around Westmount until | found the type of house | was looking for and | used it as my model.| moved the house to Belmont though because book for I wanted the park nearby in my descriptions,\u201d she said.In retrospect, she added that, \u201cthere should have been dogs in her book since the park is full of golden retrievers.a fashionable Westmount dog.\u201d A problem she said she encountered while writing this book was deciding on how her main character, Barbara, would run into a dead body since normal Westmounters do not frequently have this experience.Her books arc not based on her real-life experiences.She said that she has never encountered a dead body herself.\u201c1 did have six pcople come up to me after my first book who thought that they were the basis for characters.| made them up.\u201cMaybe in the begining I used kernels of some people that | knew but the characters really developed lives of their own,\u201d she said.Epstein did admit, however.that \u201cyou can really hear my voice throughout the book.But it does- n't mean that it is me.For example.Barbara exercises often but | wouldn't go to the gym to save my life.1 just thought she should be healthy.\u201cYou get to create characters cxactly how you want them to be.She's also younger than me.\u201d She also added that \u201cit is also fun because you get to kill people in a book.\u201d Perilous Relations was written in two and a half months because Epstein said that she was ill for an extended period last year.However, she said she thinks it was a better book than the first because \u201cit was more focused.| was in complete control.\u201d In this book, she leaves two possible suspects as the culprit.Only at the end of writing the book did she decide who did it.\u201cWhat you need to know is why people kill, you need a good motive.The three motives are always sex, money, and revenge.\u201d Both books are available in bookstores in hardcover or can be borrowed from the Westmount Library where she did a significant part of her writing.\u2018 PROGRAMME D RES EN IMMORIISATIONS / CAPITAL
