Book excerpt: "Does Alberta writing carry the DNA of a distinctive literary identity? The goal of this volume is to expose the historically contingent nature of so much of Alberta writing and how defining a literary identity is always a work-in-progress. Its essays deal with everything from bio-literary discussions of historical figures to high critical studies of single texts, mixing genres and literary styles, and making bold comparisons. Writing Alberta demonstrates that Alberta writers, especially in the contemporary period, are not afraid to uncover, re-think and re-imagine parts of Alberta history, exposing what had been laid to rest as unfinished business needing serious re-consideration."--Provided by publisher.
