In the year 2098, when a pact between the United States and Canada is put into motion, US Military protection is traded for the arranged trade of Canadian freshwater. Part of the trade pact was the dissolvement of the Canadian military under the grounds of redundancy. Two friends find their way through the cracks of the new collaboration, with the focal point of their lives being an off-the-grid compound they have built in northern Ontario. Clarke, a construction superintendent, and veteran of a second war in Iraq, balances his life between work and the compound. Ben, assistant minister of agriculture, tries to find why Canadian crop yields keep receding year after year-working with the country’s farmers to develop a solution. Clarke and Ben will be tested to their limits as the commodities of the future become the driver of politics and conflict.
Winner of the 2018 International Standing Conference for the History of Education's First Book Award Drawing on a rich array of archival sources and historical detail, The Politics of 1930s British Literature tells the story of a school-minded decade and illuminates new readings of the politics and aesthetics of 1930s literature. In a period of shifting political claims, educational policy shaped writers' social and gender ideals. This book explores how a wide array of writers including Virginia Woolf, W.H. Auden, George Orwell, Winifred Holtby and Graham Greene were informed by their pedagogic work. It considers the ways in which education influenced writers' analysis of literary style and their conception of future literary forms. The Politics of 1930s British Literature argues that to those perennial symbols of the 1930s, the loudspeaker and the gramophone, should be added the textbook and the blackboard.
