Poetry of Polish-Canadian Borderlands. Canada in Wacław Iwaniuk's Evenings on Lake Ontario

Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the poetry of Polish-Canadian writer Wacław Iwaniuk in his only volume in English Evenings on Lake Ontario [Wieczory nad jeziorem Ontario]. The aim of the essay is to highlight the book's distinctness and importance in the interpretation and discussion of the image of Canada in Iwaniuk's poems, tackling the question of his position in the actual and metaphorical Polish-Canadian borderlands. The analysis of the volume and its individual poems is woven into the background of the North American nature-writing discourse in an attempt to describe the Polish-Canadian identity in the work of Wacław Iwaniuk.
