Two Solitudes
by Hugh MacLennan
New Press | September 1, 1993 | Mass Market Paperbound
Paul is the son of a French-Canadian father and Irish mother - not exactly a match made in heaven at the first half of the century. His struggle to come to terms with these polar opposite cultures is just one aspect of this classic Canadian novel. Now even more applicable than when it was first published in 1945, Two Solitudes looks at the very different experiences of two people in Canada. Set against a backdrop of the most powerful events of the 20th century, Two Solitudes sends a message about tolerance that is even more poignant today. Written by the late, great Hugh MacLennan.
