Looking Back, Moving Forward is a collection of new writing: fiction, poetry, drama, and personal essays by members of the Borderlines Writers Circle, and published by Mawenzi House Publishers. Please join us in celebrating this exciting new book.
These creative works and brief essays by accomplished immigrant writers offer fresh perspectives, images, and insights that richly enhance our cultural imagination. Short creative works in a variety of genres—poetry, fiction, drama, and screenplay—address issues of truth, secrecy, love, loss, connections, and community. The essays in this volume grapple with the impact of immigration on art. Several of the contributors are well known in their counties of origin but endure obscurity here in Canada, their new home. This collection should serve as a gateway to the recognition of these writers in Canada.—Mawenzi House
