A stranger in a strange land is an often-felt response for people who have
torn up their roots to come to another country. Shauna Singh Baldwin,
born in Montreal but raised in India; Anosh Irani, recently
arrived in Canada from India; and Tessa McWatt, born in Guyana,
raised in Canada and now living part-time in England, talk about the influence
on their writing of being foreign. Does writing help with the process of integration?
What makes an author “Canadian?” And should the adjective be dropped?
