News and Gender in Gabrielle Roy.
- Authors
Brotherson, Lee
- Abstract
This article discusses the prominent treatment of newspapers and current events as a thematic metaphor in the novels "Bonheur d'occasion" and "Alexandre Chenevert," by the Canadian author Gabrielle Roy. The portrayal of Roy's male characters as being more interested and aggressive towards news media rather than their family life is explored in detail.
