Life in the Clearings versus the Bush
Reading ease score: 72.9 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
Produced by Arthur Wendover and Andrew Sly
"Life in the Clearings versus the Bush" by Susanna Moodie is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work serves as an exploration of Canadian life and the contrasts between the civilization of the settlements and the challenges of life in the wilderness. Moodie draws on her own experiences as an emigrant and reflects on the struggles and aspirations of settlers in Upper Canada, while addressing the broader themes of societal progress and the harsh realities of frontier living. At the start of the narrative, Moodie reflects on her past experiences in the Canadian bush and her difficult life there with her family. She discusses the failures and disillusionments faced by many settlers who came with high hopes but were ill-prepared for the harsh realities of backwoods life. The text introduces her longing to visit Niagara Falls and details how she finally ventures to see it after years of hardship. Moodie's prose captures her emotional journey and the vibrant scenes of Canadian nature, as she invites readers to accompany her on this journey while also contemplating the social dynamics and improvements in the communities surrounding her.
