Description

  • Primary audience is Canadian literature scholars
  • Contributes directly to current conversations in both contemporary Canadian media and academic circles around the relationship between bodies and land. For instance, Jordan Abel's piece addresses the possibilities and difficulties of reclaiming Nishga/Nisga'a identity in the aftermath of the residential school experience. Karina Vernon's essay addresses how Black subjects might respond in a moment when they learn that the home they've been longing for is already inhabited. Dina Al-Kassim's essay addresses kinships of dispossession.
  • This book is an effort to steer Canadian literatures out of controversy for controversy's sake, and into a flow of productive, relation-building discussion. It does this by addressing the substance of Canadian and Turtle Island writing, particularly writing by Indigenous, Black and Asian writers. While it avoids empty controversy, it embraces rigorous argument.
  • Addresses issues related to Indigenous and diaspora literatures, settler culture, Black studies, Asian Canadian studies, decolonization, critical race studies, multiculturalism, land issues
  • Particularly for those interested in the concepts of intersectionality, solidarity, and relationality

    Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

    The shipping was just superior

    The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

    Found a hard to get book…

    Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
