          6. GENNI GUNN is an author, musician and translator..

          In her latest novel, Tracing Iris (Raincoast Books, 2001) which follows Thrice upon a time (Quarry Press), On the Road, (Oberon Press) and Mating in Captivity (Quarry Press), Genni Gunn confirms her special skill for weaving complex narrative patterns.

          She provides also a further example of the æmosaic' nature of contemporary Canadian fiction as well as of its mythical quality. Her use of archetypes rests on the structuralist assumption that a universal system, a common mechanism, governs human action, and that similar behavioural patterns lead to the same results for an individual as well as for a community.

          Robert Kroetsch among others pointed out the influence of that idea on Canadian fiction, "hybrid, inclusive, the combination of the old and the new, of myths belonging to an ancestral past (biblical, classical, aboriginal) which provide the basis to contemporary living and thinking.

          The narrative voice builds up a context which echoes voices from an ancestral source."
