    Summary:

    Us, Now is a collection of stories connecting Newfoundland and Labrador to the world via racialized NL Newfoundlanders. These are stories that fit George Elliot Clarke's thinking on what a truly Canadian national tale might be: local, yet connected, broadly and diversely. They are at their essence about the concept of home, finding home, feeling at home, and communicating about home. The catalogue has it right: these writers create "new visions of an in-the-present-moment Newfoundland."
