Cultural writing. This collection of essays explores contemporary Canadian literature in all of its challenges. Specifically, the collection focuses on notions of multiplicity, how ideas of space and landscape complement and intersect with the constantly changing facets of Canadian society. The authors are all Canadians, by birth or choice, but the literary worlds they project and widely disparate. This collection intends to bring out the differences, and perceive the intersections, through concise and insightful examinations of the richly diverse body of recent Canadian writing.
