In "The Habitant and Other French-Canadian Poems," William Henry Drummond intricately weaves the vivid tapestry of rural life in Quebec through his unique literary lens. Written in a lyrical style imbued with humor and earthy imagery, the poems celebrate the resilience of the French-Canadian spirit while capturing the distinctive cadence of Quebecois dialect.
