Abstract

The essay discusses the importance of (shifts in) setting and language in short stories set in Montreal featuring Canadian characters who are of Italian heritage. I will discuss the writing process (and self-translation choices) in my collections The Pink House and Other Stories (2018) and Almond Wine and Fertility (2008; second edition 2018).
