Behind Barbed Wire: Creative Works on the Internment of Italian Canadians - Canton, Licia; Cusmano, Domenic; Mirolla, Michael; Zucchero, Jim

Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to upper inside corner; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; This book presents fiction and nonfiction, poetry and drama, and visual art - works which bring life to the memory of the internment of Italian Canadians during the Second World War. Through words and images, writers and visual artists reconstruct a hidden past and give voice to those who were silenced by shame or the inability to speak out. These works interpret the painful reality that some Italians in Canada lived during, and after, the period of the internment. These creative works reflect various ways of approaching the subject of internment and commemorate those who suffered.
