Award-winning Canadian author Allan Stratton discusses his acclaimed novels for young adults. His novel Life, Above All, was recently adapted for film and nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 2011 Oscars.

Set against the HIV/AIDS pandemic, Life, Above All, is not a book about a virus, but a book about the impact of a virus on universal themes central to the human heart: the love between parents and children, the loyalty of friends, the fear of abandonment, the terror of stigma, the pain of bereavement, and the courage to live with truth.
