Yet this picturesque and welcoming ad- friendly façade overlooks the province's history of industrial development, the impact of resource extraction on its landscape, and the effects of its painful and still unfinished period of deindustrialization. Recounting Nova Scotia's struggle to come to terms with its extractive and industrial past, Nights below Foord Street focuses on the spaces ignored by the province's annual Doers and Dreamers tourist guide. Drawing on literary texts by Lynn Coady, Leo McKay, Sarah Mian, and Jonathan Campbell, popular television shows such as Trailer Park Boys, and films including Blackbird, Cottonland, and Poor Boy's Game, Peter Thompson examines the ways in which contemporary authors, filmmakers, and artists explore the lingering consequences of the boom-and-bust cycles of mining and manufacturing. As he demonstrates, these narratives depict a legacy of environmental exploitation, pollution, intermittent disasters, and labour violence left behind by the industrial era, all of which contrast starkly with the romantic and nostalgic portrait of Nova Scotia's industrial heritage promoted in museums, monuments, and tourist sites. As Donald Trump and other populist politicians appeal to working-class nostalgia and international attention converges on environmental racism in northern Nova Scotia, Nights below Foord Street intervenes into debates over the cultural and social effects of the post-industrial economy."--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed January 28, 2020) 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 21st century|2fast 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Canadian literature|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85019388|zNova Scotia|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79089337-781|xHistory and criticism. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001187 650 0 Canadian literature|y21st century|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009118218|xHistory and criticism. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001187 650 0 Popular culture|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85104904|zNova Scotia.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79089337-781 650 0 Deindustrialization|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh95004418|zNova Scotia.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79089337-781 650 5 Canadian literature (English)|zNova Scotia|xHistory and criticism. 650 5 Canadian literature (English)|y21st century|xHistory and criticism. 650 7 Canadian literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 845111 650 7 Popular culture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1071344 650 7 Deindustrialization.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 889862 651 0 Nova Scotia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79089337|xIn popular culture.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2005004333 651 7 Nova Scotia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1206030 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aThompson, Peter, 1981-|tNights below Foord Street.|dMontreal ; Kingston ; London ; Chicago : McGill-Queen's University Press, 2019|z0773559345 |z9780773559349|w(OCoLC)1096491685 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2359603|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
