In Ontario, as urbanization increased over the past century, small towns became a popular literary trope, and Ryan Porter argues that literary small towns are reflections, and even sublimated explorations, of contemporary life._x000D_\nReferencing the theories of heritage scholars, who view popularly understood pasts as constructions shaped by changing sensibilities, IYou Cant Get There from HereI argues that the literary small-town Ontario past is malleable, consisting of attempts to come to terms with the present in which the narrators find themselves. The book focuses on four key Ontario authors  Stephen Leacock, Robertson Davies, Alice Munro, and Jane Urquhart  as well as many secondary authors, and links the readings to much broader trends in actual Ontario towns and in popular culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55396295606440,"sku":"1714211","price":2795.0,"currency_code":"UYU","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/8960\/0680\/files\/POCI-9781487504243_POCI-_9781487504243.jpg?v=1775363287","url":"https:\/\/www.libreriapocho.com.uy\/products\/you-cant-get-there-from-here-porter","provider":"Librería Pocho","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
