Joanne Saul uses the term 'biotext' to describe the unique form of writing that challenges critical practices regarding both life writing and immigrant and ethnic minority writing by blurring the borders of biography, autobiography, history, fiction, and theory, as well as poetry, prose, and visual representation."--Jacket.Canadian literatureMinority authorsHistory and criticismAutobiographical fiction, CanadianHistory and criticismAuthors, Canadian20th centuryBiographyHistory and criticismAutobiographyMinority authorsEthnicity in literatureEnglischswdKanadagndCriticism, interpretation, etc.Electronic books.
