Why Terry O'Reilly keeps coming back to Robertson Davies' Fifth Business
The Under The Influence host explains why the Robertson Davies classic is one of his all-time favourite books.
Terry O'Reilly is the host of CBC's Under the Influence and the author of This I Know: Marketing Lessons from Under The Influence. One of Terry O'Reilly's all-time favourite books is Fifth Business by Robertson Davies.
"One book that I keep going back to — and might be the only book I've ever read three times — is Fifth Business by Robertson Davies. There's something about that book that just gets to me. I think it's the core storyline, which is the toxic effects of guilt. It's a riveting story and I can't get enough of it."
