| Publications | Elvie: Girl Under Glass This memoir tells the story pf growing up in Montreal in the early 1950, a child of Italian immigrants who gets caught at the intersection of three cultures. She lives among French-speaking neighbours, goes to English-language schools but has parents who expect her to behave as though they'd never left the mountain village that bred them. Add to the mix a brutal father and the result is a hard, painful, path towards adulthood. |
