« [In The Morning Zoo], some of the traders explain that for themselves, as penniless immigrants, with little education and no connections in the new world, farming was the only means of survival. The children of these pioneers reminisce about the struggle and hardship they have endured. Many of these second- and third-generation Ontarians are now successful traders in their own right, who still frequent the Morning Zoo. One of them, a woman, has her own story to tell of the additional strain placed on her to be 'one of the guys' if she wanted to succeed against all the odds. Which she has. »
