Confluences 3: Essays on the New Canadian Literature

By Dannabang Kuwabong

The essays in this volume continue the examination, begun in CONFLUENCES 1 and continued in CONFLUENCES 2, of the exciting new writing that has emerged in Canada in the past few decades. Employing a variety of approaches and addressing the many concerns engaging their author-subjects--memory, history, and concentric identities; the subordination of women; and racism--this new body of writing collectively redefines and challenges the traditional idea of Canadian Literature.
