Parallel Encounters: Culture at the Canada-US Border by Gillian Roberts (Editor); David Stirrup (Editor)ISBN: 9781554589845
Publication Date: 2013-12-06
The essays collected in Parallel Encounters offer close analysis of an array of cultural representations of the Canada-US border, in both site-specificity and in the ways in which they reveal and conceal cultural similarities and differences. Contributors focus on a range of regional sites along the border and examine a rich variety of expressive forms, including poetry, fiction, drama, visual art, television, and cinema produced on both sides of the 49th parallel.
