« Included in this volume are chapters treating a few ’older’, well-known writers, some well-established ’mid-generation’ authors, and several ’most recent’ writers, along with ethnic Franco-Canadian authors, often suggesting future directions for writing. Although the collection is not intended to be exhaustive or definitive, it is certainly rich, and it provides a substantial representation of fiction, poetry, and theater created by French-speaking women of Canada in the final decade of the twentieth century. » (p. 16)
