Literature has always played a central role in creating and disseminating culturally specific notions of citizenship, nationhood, and belonging. In this study, Kathy-Ann Tan investigates metaphors, configurations, parameters, and articulations of US and Canadian citizenship that are enacted, renegotiated, and revised in modern literary texts, particularly during periods of emergence and crisis.
