Our Grandmothers, Ourselves

A retrospective look at our heritage through the eyes of our grandmothers

 

Our Grandmothers, Ourselves: Reflection of Canadian Women is a tribute to our grandmothers and the significant role they have played in shaping who we are. It celebrates the women who have bound us to our cultural and historical roots and honours the power of narrative to promote understanding among people of diverse backgrounds.

 

In this collection, Canadian women of various cultural, ethnic, and economic backgrounds celebrate the memories of their grandmothers and pay tribute to the significant role they have played in forming their identities.

 

“These writers speak eloquently about the strong symbiotic bond that continues to unite them to their grandmothers despite the great divides caused by space and time.” - Arun Mukherjee
