Recenzii
"In presenting transnational Canadas as a process, and a practice, Dobson enacts an ethics of reading that accounts for not only the texts of CanLit but also the contexts in which they are produced, circulated, and consumed, read and re-read, by academic and non-academic readers alike." - Gillian Roberts, University of Nottingham, British Journal of Canadian Studies, Volume 23 (Number 2), 2010
