Farrant is the celebrated author of eighteen works of fiction, non-fiction, memoir, two plays, and over one hundred book reviews and essays for the Vancouver Sun and the Toronto Globe & Mail. Her memoir, My Turquoise Years, which she adapted for the stage, premiered in 2013 at the Arts Club Theatre’s Granville Island Stage in Vancouver, British Columbia. One Good Thing—a living memoir, (Talonbooks 2021) became a BC Best Seller.
Her trilogy of miniature fiction-The World Afloat (2014), The Days (2016) and The Great Happiness (2019)—were also published by Talonbooks, as was her novel, The Strange Truth About Us – A Novel of Absence, which was chosen by The Globe & Mail as a Best Book of 2012.
Writer and broadcaster Bill Richardson has called her “a master of the Zen-like art of delivering weight in a way that is featherlight”.
“Farrant’s work is infused with iconoclastic innovation.” (Globe & Mail). BC Bookworld has called her “Canada’s most acerbic and intelligent humourist.” She has been described in print on numerous occasions as “the bizarro Alice Munro.”
