N2  - This book contains contributions from the Stockholm triennial conference of the Nordic Association for Canadian Studies and presents Joy Kogawa’s compelling plea for peace and a sheaf of poems by Heather Spears along with twenty essays using a variety of approaches in dealing with a wide range of Canadian writers. The origins and circumstances of travel books and of diaries written by pioneering women are explored as are the functions of sports and science fiction. Among the offerings are also investigations of the Canadian landscape and its metaphors in a large selection of drama, poetry and prose. The concluding piece discusses the reception of English-Canadian literature in Sweden.
