  • Jerrod Edson (born 1974 in Saint John, New Brunswick) is a Canadian novelist. His work has been widely praised by critics, including fellow New Brunswick writer David Adams Richards who said in 2005 that Edson is "one of our best young writers." In 2010, the Telegraph-Journal claimed that Edson is "one of the best New Brunswick writers, period." His novels all take place in Saint John and focus on the underbelly of society. His characters are often drunks who find redemption in one form or another. His novel The Goon was shortlisted for the 2011 ReLit Award for Best Novel. In 2013 he became a member of the Writers' Federation of New Brunswick. That same year his manuscript for The Moon is Real won the David Adams Richards Prize. Edson has completed his sixth novel, The Boulevard, his first work of speculative fiction. Publishing details are forthcoming. From the New Brunswick Literary Encyclopedia: "Edson’s vivid portrayal of the urban area, as well as the working class and underclass, creates a vision of Saint John that highlights the discrepancy between the pre-modern idyllic notion of life in Atlantic Canada and the more complicated reality of the region."
