Genres

Québec

The "Québec" category in books refers to literature that is either produced by authors from Québec, the largest province in Canada by area and the second-largest administrative division by population, or that centers on Québec's rich cultural heritage, history, and society. This genre encompasses a diverse range of literary works, including novels, poetry, plays, and non-fiction, written predominantly in French, given that Québec is a predominantly French-speaking society. The literature often explores themes such as Québecois identity, the tension between Anglophone and Francophone communities, Indigenous history, and the province's unique blend of European and North American influences. Books in this category provide readers with insights into the distinct Francophone perspective of North America, reflecting the province's ongoing quest for cultural preservation and its role in the broader tapestry of Canadian diversity.
