Overview Overview
 

“L’écriture migrante est devenue l’un des embèmes de la literature de la fin du xxe siècle, particulièrement au Quebec” – wrote Daniel Chartier in his famous 2002 essay “Les origins de l’ecriture migrante. L’immigration littéraire au Quebec au cours des deux derniers siècles”. It is still true today, nearly two decades into the 21st century. If anything, the phenomenon of migrant writing in Quebec has grown and developed in many interesting ways. This module explores the latest Quebec migrant writing through the work of three key Quebec migrant authors: Ying Chen, Abla Farhoud and Kim Thúy.
The focus on migrant identity and the different forms it can take through creative narrative representations.
