The Journals of Susanna Moodie: Poems

Sinopsis :

This cycle of poems is perhaps the most memorable evocation

in modern Canadian literature of the myth of the wilderness,

the immigrant experience, and the alienating and

schizophrenic effects of the colonial mentality. Since it was first

published in 1970 it has not only acquired the stature of a

classic but, reprinted many times, become the best-known

extended work in Canadian poetry.Susanna Moodie (1805-85)

emigrated from England in 1832 to Upper Canada, where she

settled on a farm with her husband. She wrote several books

in Canada, notably Roughing It in the Bush, a famous account


of pioneering that is still widely read. In poems about the

arrival and the Moodies' seven years in the bush, which were

followed by a more civilized ilfe in Belleville, and about Mrs

Moodie in old age and then after death - in the present, when

she observes the twentieth century destroying her past and its

meaning - Margaret Atwood has created haunting meditations

on an English gentlewoman's confrontation with the

wilderness, and compelling variations on the themes of

dislocation and alienation, nature and civilization.The poems

are supplemented by Margaret Atwood's collages and an

'Afterword' in which the poet says: 'We are all imigrants to this

place even if we were born here....'
