Dominant Impressions: Essays on the Canadian Short StoryGerald Lynch, Angela Robbeson University of Ottawa Press, 1999 - 168 pages Canadian critics and scholars, along with a growing number from around the world, have long recognized the achievements of Canadian short story writers. However, these critics have tended to view the Canadian short story as a historically recent phenomenon. This reappraisal corrects this mistaken view by exploring the literary and cultural antecedents of the Canadian short story. |
