Migration stories are an essential component of Canada?s historical/literary continuum; we need to know of such writings to rationalize about who Canadians really are, and where they are from. Aren?t we all the children of migration? Where we came from, how we got here, who we were, and are, and who may become in time ? such themes should interest all those naturally concerned about identity and origin; that eternal enigma wrought of migration. These short-fiction stories tell much about migration and Canada, in ways that are funny, ribald, tragic or contemplative, but never dull.
"You will lose yourself in this collection of stories by some of Canada's most imaginative authors. Each tale takes you to a different place (physical or psychological) that is both familiar and strange. Some writers reflect their own ethnic origins as they examine the universal human experience of migration." -- Joseph Pivato, Professor Emeritus, Athabasca University
