Description and Table of Contents

Description

Since its publication in 1994, Hiromi Gotos "Chorus of Mushrooms" has been recognised as a true classic of Asian Canadian literature. One of the initial entries in NeWest Press long-running Nunatak First Fiction Series, Hiromi Gotos inaugural outing was recognised at the Commonwealth Writers Prizes as the Best First Book in the Caribbean and Canadian regions that year, as well as becoming co-winner of the Canada-Japan book award. Gotos acclaimed feminist novel is an examination of the Japanese Canadian immigrant experience, focusing on the lives of three generations of women in modern day Alberta to better understand themes of privilege and cultural identity. This reprinting of the landmark text includes an extensive introduction and interview with the author, talking about the impact the book has had on the Canadian literary landscape.
