Together, these touching, hilarious stories make up a powerful chronicle of a place and a time, a close-knit community, and most of all, a family: three boys, a long-suffering mother, and a strangely lovable pipe-smoking, English-mangling father.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1997, when it was a finalist for the Leacock Medal for Humour and the Toronto Book Award, \u003ci\u003eBuying on Time\u003c\/i\u003e has become a favourite of Canadian readers and a staple of this country's immigrant fiction.
