Summary

This substantial book examines the fiction of Asian Canadian women writers--Indian, Chinese and Japanese--of the 1990s, specifically how their work reveals their self-perception as members of minority subcultures. By close readings of the fiction and related texts, the authors consider to what extent and in what manner these authors--Evelyn Lau, Larissa Lai, Joy Kogawa, Shauna Singh Baldwin, Anita Rau Badami and others--feel at ease or at odds in the cultural climate of Canada. A variety of subjects are covered: feminist anti-racism, resistance to Indo-Chic, feminist fictions, the racialization of bodies, the trauma of Canadian Japanese internment, etc.
