Reviews

Jane Koustas, Brock University:

"This excellent collection of fifteen essays by renowned scholars focuses on contested spaces and alternative or counternarratives. It invites rereading or reinterpreting of well-trodden ground and explores different voices and spaces in the discussion of the social meaning around space."

Jody Mason, Department of English Language and Literature, Carleton University:

"Contested Spaces, Counter-narratives, and Culture from Below in Canada and Québec is an important and compelling edited collection that will add complexity and nuance to Canadian and Québécois literary and cultural studies. Deploying new materialist approaches to analyse present and historical contested spaces/spaces of contestation, including those that are embodied, the essays attend to processes of spatialization that are rarely noticed."

Will Straw, Department of Art History and Communication Studies, McGill University:

"Contested Spaces showcases editors and authors at the top of their game, with a clear sense of the field of Canadian literary studies and the capacity to interest some of its most interesting practitioners."
