Italian Canadian Voices (Paperback)

In the years since this anthology was first published, a new and fresh generation of Italian Canadian writers have emerged and have left a further indelible mark on Canadian literature. Many of the new ‘names’ have won major prizes, both nationally and internationally, and have become the new ‘stars’ of Canadian and international literature. It is time for a new selection and a new anthology.

This revised volume of Italian Canadian Voices includes short stories, excerpts from longer prose works, and poetry. It covers the ‘first voices’ of Italian Canadian literature, the familiar and well-established voices and, to the credit of the editor, there are a significant number of new ‘voices’ represented in this volume.

In this revised edition you will find Pier Giorgio Di Cicco, Nino Ricci, George Amabile, Mary Di Michele, Len Gasparini, Alexandre Amprimoz, Caterina Edwards, Darlene Madott, Antonino Mazza, Carmine Starnino, Joseph Maviglia and many others. Each writer has already or is the process of leaving his or her unique voice and signature on the evolution of Canadian and international literature.
