I'm Canadian and my dad is a retired high school english teacher, so it turns out he had heard of the bearfucking book. He told me that the era the book had been released was sort of a golden age in Canadian lit, because Margaret Atwood's Survival had been published around this time and there was a lot of discussion about Canadian identity.

Finished the book. It's very Canadian in a quaint 1970s way - The wilderness is the best - Escaping the rat race for the wilderness will fix everything - A family that's lived in Canada for a hundred years are "tourists" because they're English colonizers - Indigenous mysticism/fetishism - Getting mauled by bears

Am I a monster for laughing when the bear finally gets a hard-on and then immediately mauls our protagonist?
