Overview

Being exposed to a multicultural environment awakens the spirit. Finding The Way-an uplifting anthology by thirteen Canadian immigrant writers-is a collection of fiction and non-fiction stories and poetry that portrays hope, courage, resilience, and grit rekindled in difficult situations. Unexpectedly sometimes. From chapter to chapter, you'll find yourself immersed in an insightful, multicultural environment united by the common thread ""finding the way."" Whether it's about life's signs that forged trailblazers ... understanding that ""home"" is not a place ... self-realization and courage to stand up triggered by Grandma's haunting words ... a quest to find alternative ways for mental health and well-being... enlightening transitions ... or a wake-up call for humanity, there are deeper universal themes woven into this book. You'll recognize or become acquainted with cultural aspects specific to the contributors' countries of origin, which have influenced their lives and way of thinking: Ghana, Ukraine, Romania, Russia, USA, India, United Arab Emirates, Senegal, Cuba, Trinidad and Tobago. This is the fourth annual anthology published by the Immigrant Writers Association (IWA), written by its members.

Reviews

""With writers coming from all over the world, reading this anthology allows us to visit somewhere new, transporting us to the past, returning to present, and taking us to the future. The stories may be diverse, but each piece depicts daring, resilience, optimism, and the universal concerns of family, friends, love, and leaving home. A fascinating read.""  Maria Victoria Beltran for Readers' Favorite ""The writers in the anthology offer an insight into the multifaceted Canadian immigrant experience; of dealing with challenges; facing fears; and engineering successes by forging their own unique paths."" Baisakhi Roy for New Canadian Media ""It's been surreal. A great experience being able to read other people's stories, and realize just how different our experiences are, but also how similar."" Kimberly Kirt, Windsor Star
