    Extractions: tales from the short road As the stories in this highly imaginative collection attest, our passage from the known into the unknown can occur anywhere. Whether hiking the Himalayas, getting high in a scuzzy nightclub, or managing the last book store on Earth, each of these remarkable characters stands at the gate between this world and the next. Surreal, speculative, and sometimes downright eerie, this is fiction that will give you that rare, pleasurable tingle up the back of your neck. Catherine Hunter This collection of short stories is edited by Uma Parameswaran, and features two of her short stories. A collection of poems by award-winning author Uma Parameswaran. These voices capture the experiences of Indo-Canadians. Collectively, the poems addresses various phases of immigrant experience from nostalgia for the land left behind and wonder at the new environment, through the realities of racial discrimination, pressures of settlement and struggle to strike roots, to the final affirmation that "Home is where your feet are, and may your heart be there too."

85. Canadian Literary Archives - Orecai Richler Biocritical
    Biocritical essay by Victor J. Ramraj in 1987.  
    http://www.ucalgary.ca/library/SpecColl/richlerbioc.htm
    
    Extractions: Two clusters of experience from Richler's boyhood, one actual, the other vicarious, have had a marked effect on his artistic psyche: his growing up in the Jewish community of Montreal during the 1930s and 1940s, of which he has stated, "that was my time, my place, and I have elected myself to get it right"; and his consciousness of the conflicts in Europe, particularly of the defense of Madrid, which made a strong impression on him as a boy of nine and later came to be used in his fiction as a metaphor for honour and heroism. The importance to him of these concurrent sets of experience is pointed up by their appearance again and again in various forms in his fiction and non-fiction. He focuses on both with equal intensity in his novels The Acrobats (1954) and Son of a Smaller Hero (1955), both of which are considered "first novels", defined by George Woodcock as works that present "somewhat realistically the problems, aspirations, and agonies of a young writer". A third-generation Canadian Jew, Richler was born on January 27, 1931, in Montreal, where his grandfather settled after venturing to Canada in 1904 to escape the Eastern European pogroms. Richler grew up in a self-contained world circumscribed by orthodoxy and by fear and ignorance of French and English Canadians. He attended Jewish parochial school, studied the Talmud and was expected to become a rabbi. At Baron Byng High School (the Fletcher's Field of his fiction), a Protestant school, he began to ease away from orthodoxy and to conceive of himself as both Jewish and Canadian, though this was not always an easy complementary conception of himself. "The minority man", he points out, quoting Norman Mailer, "grows up with a double-image of himself, his own and society's".

    Extractions: The Closer We Are to Dying avoids the sugary-sweetness that often coats lesser fare. With the exception of only a few stories, Fiorito refuses to slip into a Tuesdays with Morrie The Closer We Are to Dying may not push Canadian life-writing in any new directions, but it does make for a compelling read, particularly because of the sheer quality of its prose, appreciation for emotional complexity, and willingness to push aside generic innovations and textual experimentation in favour of a well-told story.

    Extractions: Below is the reading for this course. The page numbers refer to An Anthology of Canadian Native Literature in English , available fromm the departmental library. The Rez Sisters can also be borrowed there. Each week the readings for that week are indicated, as well as the report. The report is to be an oral report on the assigned work done by a student; it should last about 10-15 minutes – NO MORE – and done so as to give the class a clear idea of what the book is about, as well as a critical view of the work; ideally, it should be done in such a way as to allow questions to be asked by other students. Those who do not give a report scheduled for a class will give it to me personally, at some time during my office hours. In both cases, it I feel the report has not been satisfactory, I will ask you to repeat it for me. At the end of the semester, there will also be an essay on a topic of your choosing; it would be best to consult with me beforehand. The assessment of the course will be class participation 25%, report 25%, and essay 50%.

    Extractions: The following is a Gaslight etext.... A message to you about **************************************************************** * Gaslight note: after reading two articles in The Canadian * * Magazine (1899-may) which discussed literary greats, * * Robert Barr was provoked to write the following two- * * part, complementary article chiding the editor and all * * Canadians for neglecting to promote home-grown literature. * * Barr's article was featured prominently and generated at * * least two other response articles from other writers. Barr * * participated in articles for The Canadian Magazine at * * at least once a year after becoming successful abroad. * **************************************************************** from The Canadian Magazine , XIV, 1 (November 1899), pp. 3-7 In the May number of The Canadian Magazine there appeared an article by the editor entitled 'The Strength and Weakness of Current Books.' The article deals largely of Canada and its literature, and thus it is interesting to all of us who have an affection for Canada, especially as the subject is treated with illuminating restraint by Mr. Cooper. As the matter is, strictly speaking, none of my business, I naturally desired to say something about it, but the year has grown several months older before I could snatch time from more pressing work than the delightful task of lecturing Canada, and even now I must treat this important theme with a haste and superficiality it does not deserve.
