  • Because immigration and movement are woven into the histories of so many countries, and are such extended and present day phenomena, this paper aims at analysing, through the study of Hiromi Goto's "Chorus of Mushrooms", the specific problematics of identity and belonging of racialized minorities in the presupposedly multicultural background of twentieth-century Canada, focusing on the different ways of adapting (or not) to this "new reality" that the characters in the narrative exemplify.
