Timothy Findley, Michael Ondaatje, Tim Wynne-Jones, George Woodcock, M.G. Vassanji, P.K. Page, Linda Spalding, Shyam Selvadurai, Judith Thompson, Tim Lilburn and Diane Schoemperlen are just a few of the well-known and respected writers who have joined together in this innovative anthology to celebrate World Literacy of Canada's 40th anniversary.
