Title |
Brian Moore's Unsettling Irish Immigrant: The Luck of Ginger Coffey
|
Abstract |
Brian Moore's classic novel, The Luck of Ginger Coffey (1960), follows the fortunes of an Irish immigrant and his family over a few weeks in 1950s Montreal. Employing recent scholarly work that has been done on the Irish in Canada, the author contextualizes Moore's novel in a mildly corrective history of Irish immigration, multiculturalism, discrimination, integration, and Canada's tolerance of immigrants' tenaciously mistaken dreams.
