Written by an author who has much experience of both wilderness survival and motherhood, it is a brilliant examination of how children help each other and themselves in extreme circumstances. PRAISE FOR CLAIRE CAMERON’S THE BEAR “The Bear had me up all night, and when I finally put it down I knew that I wouldn’t forget Anna and her little brother Stick for a long time. Claire Cameron is an absolute master in letting us feel grief and loss by RIGHTS SOLD never using those words. The ending is very moving and offers us real US: Reagan Arthur Books/ consolation at the same time.” Little, Brown, 2014 – HERMAN KOCH, AUTHOR OF THE DINNER Canada: Doubleday, 2014 “A tender, terrifying, poignant ride. Hang on.” UK: Harvill Secker, Random — OPRAH.COM House UK, 2014 “A gripping survival thriller … [an] agonizing odyssey of loss and being Netherlands: Cargo/De lost also has humour. The book’s anguished yet hopeful ending provides Bezige Bij a touching terminus for Anna and Stick’s journey to adulthood. This Brazilian Portuguese: expertly crafted novel could do for camping what Jaws did for swimming.” Bertrand Brasil/Grupo — PEOPLE Editorial Record “Harrowing suspense. The Bear is a survival thriller that is told from a Turkey: Nefes Yayinevi child’s-eye point-of-view, which is not only convincing but doubles the Vietnam: Skybook tension. A heartbreaking, white-knuckle read.” Film: John Tatoulis – ANDREW PYPER, AUTHOR OF THE DEMONOLOGIST France: Kero “The Bear is a taut and touching story of how a child’s love and denial become survival skills. Claire Cameron takes a fairytale situation of children pitted against the wilderness, removes the fairies, and adds a terrifying and ravenous bear. I devoured this wonderful new novel in one day—if I can use the word ‘devoured’ for a book about a bear.” – CHARLOTTE ROGAN, AUTHOR OF THE LIFEBOAT “Claire Cameron plunges us in to the dark terrors of the wilderness. The Bear is a survival story that is heart-pounding and moving. I devoured this book.” – TANIS RIDEOUT, AUTHOR OF ABOVE ALL THINGS “The Bear faultlessly captures the wonder, bewilderment, fear and self- centeredness of five-year-old Anna, and beautifully balances the darkness of her tale with a hopeful, sensitively told back story and moments when she grasps her situation with just enough clarity to shoulder her burden.” – CATHY MARIE BUCHANAN, AUTHOR OF THE PAINTED GIRLS 2 FICTION NEW! The Last Neanderthal A riveting literary thriller set at the end of the Neanderthal era 75,000 words / Final manuscript January 2016 “In a flash, she could see that that the cat knew her plan. He had watched her eyes flicker and guessed her moves exactly. He jumped, but to the side. One beat of the heart and she had missed the mark. The stick would hit at the side of his mouth. Rather than stab through the back of his head as intended, it would glance off his tooth or nose. Without perfect aim, she would not be able to kill him in one move. There was no second move. She was the eaten.” — From The Last Neanderthal by Claire Cameron The Last Neanderthal is based on the life of Girl, who finds herself photo by: Katrina Alfonso alone as her family members die off and disappear.

PRAISE FOR CLAIRE CAMERON’S THE LINE PAINTER “It takes a certain amount of courage to tread such well-covered ground; it takes significant talent to make such a familiar conceit feel fresh and original, to lift it beyond the constraints of the cliché. In her debut novel The Line Painter…Toronto writer Claire Cameron demonstrates that she has both, in abundance. … The opening pages of The Line Painter are a masterful balancing act of suspense and relief, a dance RIGHTS SOLD between expectation and surprise that steadily increases the tension to Canada: HarperCollins, an almost unbearable point. Writing in a tight, parsed, minimalist tone, 2007 Cameron acutely conveys the tension inherent in the situation and, more Vietnam: Skybook significantly, builds on readerly expectations with this motif. … It’s a bravura performance. … Some of Carrie’s actions are shocking, but Visit Claire online at nonetheless fully in character. That’s a difficult trick for a writer to pull www.claire-cameron.com off but Cameron manages it with aplomb.” — THE GLOBE AND MAIL FICTION 3 EDEN ROBINSON NEW!

Canada: Knopf, fall 2016 PRAISE FOR EDEN ROBINSON’S MONKEY BEACH “Beautifully written and haunting, this is an impressive debut.” — THE TIMES, UK “Monkey Beach is far more than a novel of psychological transformation, though it is that. It is, in the best sense, a thriller, a spiritual mystery…. The novel also contains some of the truest passages I have read on what it is like to be a teenager…. Puberty has rarely received such a perceptive and unflinching gaze. You can tell Monkey Beach is an original because you actually want to read it again. [This is a] startlingly accomplished first novel.” — THE WASHINGTON POST “Although death hangs like a Pacific mist over these pages, Robinson, herself a Haisla, fills this edifying book with the stuff of the living, from the tiniest details of Haisla life to the mightiest universals of tradition, desire and family love.” — THE LOS ANGELES TIMES “Robinson’s paean to the Pacific Northwest and Haisla culture, embodied in her stout-hearted hero and all her other vital and complex characters, does what good literature does best: It moves meaningfully from the particular to the universal and back again. And Robinson performs this enlightening feat with genuine insight, wry humor and translucent lyricism.” — THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE 4 FICTION Monkey Beach A darkly humorous aboriginal coming-of-age story set in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest 374 pages / Finished books available • Longlisted for the IMPAC Dublin Literary Award, 2002 • Finalist for the Giller Prize and the Governor General’s Award, 2000 • Winner of the B.C.

  • (Title of the Thesis)*
    WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?: INDIGENOUS ARTISTS CONTEST THE "PLACE" OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLE IN CANADA By Paula E. Loh A thesis submitted to the Department of Geography in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada May, 2015 Copyright © Paula E. Loh, 2015 "We see the world, not as it is, but as we are." ~ Stephen R. Covey, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People ii Abstract Indigenous artists challenge cultural stereotypes by creating images that contest preconceived notions of the "place" of Indigenous people held by the Canadian population at large. This thesis research explores the question of identity and stereotypes and how this is transgressed through the work of contemporary Indigenous artists in Canada to adjust the position of Indigenous people in the social hierarchy that controls their "place." Many Indigenous artists incorporate political statements into their artworks that challenge the ongoing stereotypes that assign Indigenous people to their "place"; the political commentary is often the only aspect of their work that identifies it as "Indigenous," with a variety of techniques, media, and styles used in the creation of the art, reflecting the individuality of the artists. The normativity of whiteness and its impact on ideology and politics is examined, both in historical and contemporary times. Hegemonic images have promoted the Eurocentric concept that the White "race" is the norm and the standard by which others should be judged and put in their "place," contributing to the objectification of Indigenous peoples and the creation of the stereotypical "Indian," such as the "noble savage," and the "ignoble savage." Images created by contemporary Indigenous artists transgress these cultural stereotypes.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository by an authorized administrator of Scholarship@Western. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract This project elaborates a concept of “species panic,” a severe and often violently-charged reaction to the notion that one’s privileged species status as a human being is under threat. In this project’s post-1900 American literary archive, species panic is often provoked by nonhuman eros, which provokes and threatens the fantasy of human exceptionalism. Theoretically, this project yokes animal studies and posthumanism (Donna Haraway, Dominic Pettman, Kathy Rudy) with queer theory and critical race studies (Mel Y. Chen, Zakiyyah Iman Jackson, Alexander Weheliye) as its central driving forces. This theoretical backdrop informs my reading of American authors Jack London, Ernest Hemingway, Philip K.

  • Contemporary Voices from Anima Mundi View Which Is Taking Us to the Brink of Self-Destruction
    Stefano Varese, Eds. Stefano Varese, and Apffel-Marglin Frédérique This book is a reconsideration of spirituality as a lived experience in the lives of the contributors. The authors speak both as well-informed scholars and as individuals who experienced the lived spirituality they give voice to. The authors do not place themselves above and outside of what they are writing Contemporary Voices about but within that world. They speak of living psychospiritual traditions of healing both the self and the world; of traditions that have not disembedded the self from the wider world. Those traditions are from indigenous North from Anima Mundi and South America (5 essays), a Buddhist/Shakta from Bengal, an Indo- Persian Islamic psychoanalyst, and a mystical Jewish feminist rabbi. The book also includes a historical essay about the extermination of the Renaissance worldview of Anima Mundi. A Reappraisal “This book is a remarkable collection of essays on a topic of immense importance for our times. Bringing years of experience and expertise, the authors illustrate brilliantly the healing dimensions of the living world. Apffel- Marglin and Varese are to be congratulated on this singular achievement.” —Mary Evelyn Tucker, Yale University Forum on Religion and Ecology “We have seen the de-sacralization of nature by a reductionistic materialist from Anima Mundi Contemporary Voices view which is taking us to the brink of self-destruction. This book brings forth an array of multicultural and 21st century post-materialistic science perspectives, which reveal that spirit is indeed embedded in matter, and that we are surrounded by visible and invisible non-human subjects.
