This volume discusses the autobiographical inclination in Canadian
literature, exploring works by such writers as Alice Munro, W.O.
Mitchell, Michael Ondaatje, John Glassco, and Susanna Moodie.
Others works, including the oral memoirs of a Metis, an Inuit's
account as being civil servant in Ottawa, and the autobiographical
writings of pioneer women and French missionaries are examined to
show the depth and breadth of this tradition in Canada. These texts
act as starting points for an indepth look at the relationships
between autobiography, biography and fiction in Canadian
literature.
