Inhaltsangabe

Emily Carr (1871-1945), a Canadian artist, was one of the most renowned women for her time for her paintings of indigenous Canadian subjects and the spectacular Pacific coastal areas of British Columbia. Less is known, however, of her career as a writer, on which she embarked in later life when ill-health made writing difficult. The three books she published in her lifetime, and which are examined in this volume, were enormously popular with both critics and public, and she received the Governor-General's Award for General Literature in 1942. This book fills a gap in the scholarship around this greatly admired artist.
