Summary:
"This book features the voices of
women
who have experienced moving from somewhere else to live in
Canada
. Some
women
were brought to
Canada
as children, while others emigrated as adults; yet others were born in
Canada
of immigrant parents. The
women
chronicle their journey of settlement in
Canada
through life-writing and essays. In all instances, they focus on reaching for a sense of belonging in the host country as they engaged in community building. This required transcending their 'immigrantness' to create a sense of belonging in
Canada
. While the end result is gratifying, the journey required adapting to culture shock, alienation, and loss of identity that are inevitably part of the immigrant’s experience."--From publisher.
