Set in the immigrant community of "Winnipeg' s North End," "Under the Ribs of Death" follows the progress of young Sandor Hunyadi as he struggles to cast off his Hungarian background and become a " real Canadian." Embittered by poverty and social humiliation, Sandor rejects his father' s impractical idealism and devotes himself single-mindedly to becoming a successful businessman. Equipped with a new name and a hardened heart, he is close to realizing his ambition when fortune' s wheel takes an unexpected - and possibly redemptive - turn. Combining social realism and moral parable, "Under the Ribs of Death" is John Marlyn' s ironic portrayal of the immigrant experience in the years leading up to the Great Depression. As a commentary on the problems of cultural assimilation, this novel is as relevant today as it was when first published in 1957.

Examines stereotypes in Canadian literature reflecting both the racist view that Jews and other aliens could never become good "white" Canadians because of their inherent defects, and the belief that with time they could assimilate. Discusses the origins of ethnic tension in Canada. Up to 1939, English Canadian literature expressed the demand for British Protestant political and cultural dominance. The popular novelist Charles Gordon, a Presbyterian minister, viewed the British (especially the Scots) as the chosen race, and even when trying to present Jews sympathetically he treated them as stereotypes. John Murray Gibbon was violently antisemitic. F.P Grove saw the Jews as urban businessmen exploiting the peasant immigrants. After 1945 antisemitism became unfashionable. Works by Jews such as Mordecai Richler exposed anti-Jewish discrimination, and English Canadians produced works attacking antisemitism and racism.

This landmark study explores the cultural and literary history of unemployment in Canada from the 1920s to the 1970s, which were crucial decades in the formation of our current conception of Canada as a nation. Writing Unemployment asks how writers with diverse political affiliations participated in and protested against the discursive framing of unemployment. It argues that Depression-era conceptions of unemployment shaped later twentieth-century understandings of both worklessness and citizenship. By examining novels, short stories, poetry, manifestos, and agitprop, Jody Mason situates the literary history of the cultural left in a broader context, challenges the dominant literary-historical narrative of the pioneer settler, and contributes to new scholarship on Canada's modern period. By bridging close textual readings with book and publishing history, economic and sociological analysis, and original archival research, Writing Unemployment offers new ideas on work by many of Canada's most important writers.

Over the past decades, Canadian immigrant writing has emerged as a powerful force in shaping the evolution of Canada’s identity as a country – a vibrant, multifaceted, multiethnic, cosmopolitan society that it is today. The present study analyses four post-modern Canadian immigrant writers who explored the consequences of migration in the construction and transformation of identities while uncovering the tortuous path of the ‘silent’ movement towards ethnic integration. The aim is to explore how the theme of identity permeates the literary works of these writers who depict a migratory flow in search of identity and sense of belonging, where old ideals gradually give way to the new.
