Earth and High Heaven Gwethalyn Graham Earth and High Heaven Gwethalyn Graham Earth and High Heaven is, simply, a drama of human relationships -- of two people in love who are confronted by the obstacle of racial intolerance -- presented with such cutting truth, such fidelity to life, such compassion and understanding, that their problem becomes, indelibly, the reader's own. With rare perceptiveness, Gwethalyn Graham takes the reader into the lives of Erica Drake and Marc Reiser, whose two worlds are separated by families and conventions. Here is the story of a man and woman who dared earth and high heaven to make their vision real.

From Reader Review Earth and High Heaven for online ebook Diane says This book is a period piece. Set in Montreal in 1942 there are three distinct groups in society -- English protestants, French Catholics and Jews. The English and French are just started to intermarry but Gentile-Jew unions are still seriously frowned upon. This is the story of a young woman from an upper class WASP family falling in love with a young Jewish lawyer and it was a very important book in it's time but was so period specific that it went out of print for twenty years even though it won Canada's ultimate literary award in 1944. It is reminiscent of the movie "Guess Who's Coming Dinner" which was an Academy Award winner in 1967 and also a big sensation for a short period of time. The movie starring the suave Sidney Portier and the renowned Tracy and Hepburn, tells the story of a white woman who is engaged to a black man and brings him home to meet her parents. It is heartening that these two stories are now out-dated relicts of the recent past. Maybe we are making progress as a society after all. Eve says One of my favourite books I've ever read - this is such a beautiful read and is still so relevant today Jane says Graham wrote this book in 1944 and won the Governor General's award for it. I read it as a teenager and reread it now for book club. It still is a powerful read. The story is set in 1942 Montreal. You have 3 distinct groups of people - Protestant Gentiles, Catholic French Canadians and Jews. This is a story of a gentile girl from a prominent Montreal family falling in love with a Northern Ontario Jewish lawyer. Canada was fighting Nazism and the anti-antisemitism found in Europe and yet antisemitism was alive in Canada. Erica and Marc's families both are against their love and the book explores this dilemma. Sometimes the story gets weighted down with the dialogue exploring this theme. I think the theme is still relevant today. So often we generalize about a race or culture and to break down those barriers we need to meet the individual to see that they are a human being and not a monster. Annalisa says Read of this Canadian writer in the biography of Mordecai Richler. This was a book that made a splash when Richler was school age, although he was supposedly unaware of it. A story of forbidden love between an anglo protestant woman and jewish man during WWII montreal. Racist times indeed and a real page turner, if a bit plodding at times with the focus on the inner thoughts of the characters. Elisa says ~real review pending~ PDF File: Earth and High Heaven... 3 Read and Download Ebook Earth and High Heaven... All I'll say at the moment is that this was a fantastic book. Set in 1942 during the height of the Nazi regime when the rest of the world was getting really nervous, we meet Erica Drake and Marc Rieser. Marc, of Jewish descent, and Erica, of notable gentry, fall in love much to the consternation of her family. Throughout we watch Erica learn the true meaning of prejudice and fight tooth and nail for what she believes in. For anyone who thinks Canada has a perfect, squeaky clean record, this book will set you straight. From French-Catholic hate to anti-Semitism, Canada has a record just as bad as any other country. At least we learned. Tina says One of my favorite books in a long while. This reminded me of To Kill a Mockingbird but with a Canadian twist. I feel this will become a classic for me! A stunning piece of literature. Ali says This will almost certainly be on my books of the year list – a book I couldn’t stop reading but didn’t want to finish. It’s hard to convey in a review just how lovely this book is, you may just need to read it. There is something about Gwethalyn Graham’s story-telling, the way in which she creates relationships, the emotional and upsetting nature of the divisions that she portrays which makes this novel so compelling. I hadn’t heard of Gwethalyn Graham before Persephone re-issued this novel, a Canadian writer who published one other earlier novel before this. Earth and High Heaven was an enormous success remaining on the New York Times bestseller list for thirty-eight weeks. First published in 1944 – those first readers could not have known whether the happy ending that is implicit in the novel’s opening sentence would be replicated for the allies. Gwethalyn Graham explores the divisions and deeply entrenched prejudices which existed in Canadian society, through the story of Erica Drake and Marc Reiser who meet and fall in love. Set in Montreal during World War Two – Graham shows us how society was divided into three distinct groups. “Hampered by racial-religious distinctions to start with, relations between the French, English and Jews of Montreal are still further complicated by the fact that all three groups suffer from an inferiority complex – the French because they are a minority in Canada, the English because they are a minority in Quebec, and the Jews because they are a minority everywhere.” Full review: https://heavenali.wordpress.com/2017/... Kaylee Harkness says I'm told this is a very popular and important novel. I could barely get through it. PDF File: Earth and High Heaven... 4 Read and Download Ebook Earth and High Heaven... Brittany Haines says Such a lovely book! Will says Needs to be read in context of the 1930’s and 40’s when it was groundbreaking, apparently. Now it is a rather (actually, very) predictable love story between a Jew and a Montreal WASP. All the twists and arguments seem a bit forced however, they are there to carry the message that G wanted to present - that is, to show how prejudiced Canadian society was towards Jews. All very worthy, but the writing itself is not good enough to compensate. Carole says This is the second time that I have read this book. The first time was about 40 years ago. It had a big impact on me then and it was no less powerful this time around. It was first published in 1944 and was a long- running NY Times bestseller and a winner of several literary awards including the Governor General’s Award for Fiction in Canada that year. The story takes place in Montreal in 1942 and revolves around the relationship between Erica Drake, a Westmount WASP, and Marc Reiser, a Canadian-born Jewish lawyer who has enlisted in the army and is about to be shipped overseas. Although they seem to be a perfect match in every way, their love is threatened by the prejudice that they encounter from both families and within the community. Some people might think that this novel is dated. However, if that is because it is set in Montreal during World War II, then every novel that is set in a particular time and place is dated. Graham unflinchingly presents the blatant anti-Semitism that was systemic in Canada at that time: hotels and apartment buildings that did not admit Jews, universities that had a quota system with a very limited number of places for Jewish students, athletic and social clubs that had “select members” only. Her presentation of this discrimination was considered very controversial at the time because it was still happening when she wrote about it. Although our society has become much more inclusive almost 70 years later, that does not mean that a book written about that era is dated. This is a very real part of our history. In addition to the serious issues of xenophobia and racism that Gwethalyn Graham probes with great thoughtfulness and reflection, "Earth and High Heaven" is a real page-turner and a very enjoyable read. Wendy says This book was written in the 1940s by a Canadian. It's the story of a Jewish man and a Gentile woman who fall in love. They have to overcome the prejudices of the time concerning mixed marriages. It is beautifully written.

  • The Watch That Ends the Night Hugh Maclennan (Macmillan, 1959, Now Available from Mcgill-Queen’S) I Knew Hugh Maclennan Well
    the storytellers book club presents The Watch That Ends the Night Hugh MacLennan (Macmillan, 1959, now available from McGill-Queen’s) I knew Hugh MacLennan well. I knew him in the 1960s first as a friend and neighbour at his cottage at North Hatley, in the Eastern Townships, then as his editor (for his last novel, Voices in Time), and as his publisher. After his death in 1990, I created the anthology Hugh MacLennan’s Best, selected from all of his work, fiction and non-fiction. In 2013, when Two Solitudes was selected as a finalist for Canada Reads, I was asked by the CBC to speak on Hugh’s behalf, which was a very great honour. Although I can claim to have edited all of the other four books that I have selected for this book club, I did not edit The Watch That Ends the Night, which I think is Hugh MacLennan’s best book. It was published in 1959, when I was still in high school (although I still remember browsing through the paperback version at a Glasgow Station book stall, attracted by the exciting — if misleading — log- ging scene on the cover. Ah, those publishers!). Hugh had spent many years writing it. Elspeth Cameron’s defini- tive biography Hugh MacLennan: A Writer’s Life shows that as far back as July 1954 he had felt able to say that he had the whole novel drafted “from beginning to end,” but it took him several years to finish it. One reason was Hugh’s determination to make sure that this, a sig- nificant novel dealing with major themes, was not going to be rushed.

  • QC Fiction in EN
    QUEBEC FICTIO I EGLISH DURIG THE 1980S: 1 A CASE STUDY I MARGIALITY Linda Leith I The unique position of Quebec writers in the English language 2 and the peculiarities of the fiction they have been publishing during the 1980s are best understood in the light of recent socio-political and cultural changes within Quebec and in Canada as a whole. Caught up as no other English-Canadian writers have been caught up in the maelstrom of change, and living as no other English-Canadian writers live in a society with a French face, these writers have produced a body of work quite distinct in some ways from other contemporary English-Canadian fiction. Much of my thinking about this writing is inspired by recent work on the formation of literary canons and on the literary production of marginal social groups. It owes a particular debt to the work of Raymond Williams, who devoted much of his career to exploring the possibilities of discussing English literature and society together while respecting the uniqueness of specific texts. This is a debt not only to Williams's most general observation that "as a society changes, its literature changes" (1965, 268), and to his comments on the formation of a literary tradition, but also to his suggestive, though not wholly applicable, account of the interrelations between dominant and alternative or oppositional aspects at a given historical moment. Williams's distinction between two different kinds of alternatives on a status quo, which he terms the "residual" and the "emergent" (1977, 121-27), is helpful in discussions of the cultural manifestations of the middle class in nineteenth century Britain; it is not applicable in the present context of English Quebec fiction, which requires an assessment of a social group linked not along class lines but rather along linguistic and cultural lines.

    A Defense of Publicity Frank Davey University of Western Ontario 1. minimum responsibility of academics as citizens of a national andA a global society, I suggest, is to respond to the off campus when asked about matters for which we have proven expertise—in my own case to respond to a request to speak to a Canadian literature reading group, to serve on an awards jury, to answer invitations to speak to Canadianists abroad, to investigate a pedagogy question for a government ministry, to comment on a book or an author’s death or the construction of a news story if telephoned by a newspaper or radio station. Those outside the academy don’t necessarily view us as especially objective, but they often believe that we have information they may not have or questions they have not thought to ask. And what about those occasions when one is not asked but one suspects that one’s knowledge might change events outside the academy were it disseminated there? Don’t we still have a responsibility to educate—not necessarily to change minds but to enlarge them? The expertise which most qualifies me and many others to speak out on public issues is interpreting images, situations, promises, and various speech acts. It also qualifies some of those off campus, such as cbc’s Terry O’Reilly, host of the program “Under the Influence.” U.S. poet Charles Bern ESC 38.2 (June 2012): 8–12 stein has repeatedly argued that it is only through a society’s intellectuals being willing to contribute to “the education of the public at large” that a society can be “innovative, vibrant, and socially responsible” (“Poet” 28) and its politics avoid stagnation.

Bennett Metcalfe’s 1985 biography of Roderick Haig-Brown, A Man of Some Importance. Chancellor of the University of Victoria from 1970 to 1973, Haig- Brown (1908-76) was an early British Columbia environmentalist, a sometime logger, trapper and fisherman, and a long-serving magistrate of the juvenile court of Campbell River. According to his biographer, he also received the first Governor General’s Medal for Juvenile Literature for his 1948 book, Saltwater Summer.1 Even so, Haig-Brown’s name and book appear nowhere on the official list of award-winners maintained by the Canada Council for the Arts: the Cumulative List of Winners of the Governor General’s Literary Awards / Liste cumulative des lauréates et des lauréats des Prix littéraires du Gouverneur général.2 Explaining the omission is not straightforward. The most plausible explanation is that Haig-Brown was likely the first (and to date the only) author to receive a Governor General’s Citation for his work,3 rather than the then-traditional medal.
