A young woman's coming-of-age through a toxic relationship, isolation, and betrayal-set against the stark landscape of the far north

Millicent is a shy twenty-four-year-old reporter who moves to Whitehorse to work for a failing daily newspaper. With winter looming and the Yukon descending into darkness, Millicent begins a relationship with Pascal, an eccentric and charming middle-aged filmmaker who lives on a converted school bus in a Walmart parking lot. What begins as a romantic adventure soon turns toxic, and Millicent finds herself struggling not to lose herself and her voice.

Events come to a head at Thaw di Gras, a celebration in faraway Dawson City marking the return of light to the north. It's here, in a frontier mining town filled with drunken tourists, eclectic locals, and sparkling burlesque dancers, that Millicent must choose between staying with Pascal or finally standing up to her abuser.

In the style of Ottessa Moshfegh's honest exploration of dysfunctional relationships, and with the warmth and energy of Heather O'Neill, Rabbit Rabbit Rabbit illuminates what it's like to be young, impulsive, and in love in one of the harshest environments in the world.

Reviews for Rabbit Rabbit Rabbit: A Novel

Sander-Green shows that a quiet novel doesn’t have to be a simple one. * Toronto Star * Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit is a provocative coming-of-age story in which a budding journalist reckons with love, isolation, and issues of personal identity. * Foreword * A contemplative story with a gratifying conclusion … Readers might feel their throats tighten and stomachs shrink at the mere thought of the domineering antagonist. And Sander-Green’s realistic portrayal of a newbie journo who pushes north to pursue a media career offers provocative insights on a path many reporters have taken. * Literary Review of Canada * Through Rabbit Rabbit Rabbit, Sander-Green pulls together many intriguing and image-rich threads that portray what it’s like to inhabit a remote pocket of Canadian society. -- The British Columbia Review A compelling, quiet, and intense story about isolation, identity, and finding oneself in the face of abuse and hardship. * Library Ladies *
