About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox volunteers bring you 8 recordings of The Twilight Hour by Susanna Moodie. This was the Weekly Poetry project for October 30, 2016. Read in English by Bruce Kachuk; David Lawrence; Greg Giordano; Lee Ann Howlett; Maria Kasper; Matthew Datcher; Robin Lamb and Tomas Peter. Susanna Moodie was an English-born Canadian author who wrote about her experiences as a settler in Canada, which was a British colony at the time. Her letters and journals contain valuable information about life in the colony. She observed life in what was then the backwoods of Ontario, including native customs, the climate, the wildlife, relations between the Canadian population and recent American settlers. Moodie wrote of the trials and tribulations she found as a "New Canadian", rather than the advantages to be had in the colony. She claimed that her intention was not to discourage immigrants but to prepare people like herself, raised in relative wealth and with no prior experience as farmers, for what life in Canada would be like. She lived to see Canadian Confederation. (1867) ( Wikipedia)
