Summary: | This thesis will analyze four recent novels by Canadian writers in English and French: Jane Urquhart's Changing Heaven, Aritha van Herk's Places Far From Ellesmeze, Madeleine Ouellette-Michalska's La Maison Trestler, and Nancy Huston's Les Variations Goldberg. I have chosen these particular novels because they each feature a specific intersection of real and fictional entities separated in time by at least fifty years - a narrative technique which is extremely rare in the Canadian novel. |
