The Tin Flute, Gabrielle Roys first novel, is a classic of Canadian fiction. Imbued with Roys unique brand of compassion and compelling understanding, this moving story focuses on a family in the Saint-Henri slums of Montreal, its struggles to overcome poverty and ignorance, and its search for love.

An affecting story of familial tenderness, sacrifice, and survival during the Second World War, The Tin Flute won both the Governor Generals Award and the Prix Fmina of France. The novel was made into a critically acclaimed motion picture in 1983.
