Reseña del libro "Adèle Dubois: A Story of the Miramichi Valley (en Inglés)"
A revealing and engaging portrait of New Brunswick on the eve of Confederation.A devastating wildfire, subtle threats of annexation, and New Brunswick's uneasy sense of itself in the face of American persuasions all figure prominently in Adèle Dubois, a novel first published in 1865 and as relevant today as it was 160 years ago.Opening to a mystery, and rife with local nuance, larger-than-life characters, and gothic flashes typical of the romantic impulses of its time, the novel offers a rich portrait of New Brunswick on the eve of Confederation. On the eve, that is, of deciding whether provincial loyalties would be colonial or continental, our values British or American.Those tensions play out in a fictional but familiar Miramichi region where the rub of religions and ethnicities shines a light on settlement patterns and debates in the province. Anchoring the whole is a plucky young heroine who is every bit as spirited as the red-haired islander who would emerge in a neighbouring province some two generations later.Editor Tony Tremblay presents this new edition with an Introduction and a comprehensive Afterword. His research and analysis of the text will engage readers and scholars of New Brunswick's literature and history alike.
