      10. Rather than go on with details, I want to ask: what is going on here? Why so much CanLit about unnatural animal & vegetable sex?

      11. I think it all comes down to settler colonialism & national identity.

      12. The United States might be defined by a proposition ("All men etc.") Canada is defined by a myth: wrestling with harshness of nature

      13. In language of Northrop Frye & @MargaretAtwood, settler Canadian identity is surviving harshness nature in small garrisons.

      14. To wrestle with nature is also, in time, to feel that peace will come if you can achieve intimacy with nature.

      15. This is also highly suggestive. I wonder if these human/animal stories aren't also race allegorieshttps://twitter.com/tressiemcphd/status/776986685724909568 …

      17. Another magazine, devoted Canadian history, was called The Beaver. Had to change name because people thought it was a porn publication.

      18. By the way, in the replies people mention other Canadian bestiality fiction by Gowdy & Finley. Someone should compile a list.

          There is an interesting Julie Doucet comic strip about having sex with a beer bottle. Might be related.
