“C’est mal-aisé faire ta vie quand t’a pas même un pays a toi”(It’s tough to go on with your life when you don’t even have a country to call home)-Antonine Maillet, Pélagie-la-Charette
That novel won the Goncourt prize in 1979 (and Maillet is one of only two non-europeans to ever win that prize). It’s also the epic of my nation, the Acadians. I guess that’s why I’ll always have a soft spot for the immigrants, especially when others want to kick them out.
