» cmac29ca - You do bring back memories LOL

Reading your article made me giggle. I too had to study Canadian Literature to get my English Degree. In my case I studied Canadian novels. As I recall I first took the course and the professor was a pompous !@$! Made it to mid way through the course and then finally gave up. Just could not deal with The Temptations of Big Bear by Rudy Wiebe and a dreadfully dull instructor.

Alas, I had to retake the course but was fortunate to get a different Professor who truly loved Canadian Literature and selected wonderful novels and short story collections to read. Some of my favorites from this course were: The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz by Mordecai Richler, The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje Who Do You Think You Are? by Alice Munro and several titles by Margaret Atwood.

Looking forward to the books you recommend here.
