Summary/Abstract: Immigration makes one question things until then taken for granted and considered “normal.” These selections from a literary diary reflect a small part of the unexpected questions the author was confronted with in the first five years after landing in Canada, which addressed both her adoptive and birth countries. The concept of national identity is the main focus of the self-reflective process, its theoretical redefinition being discreetly embedded in the literary discourse.
