Much remains to be explored about Frederick Philip Grove, whose influence on Canadian literature is significant yet often overlooked. Since his active involvement in shaping the Canadian literary landscape, the field has evolved, emerging from colonial and post-colonial challenges to forge a distinct identity. Now is the time to reassess Grove's contributions and the broader context of Canadian literature. As the first Canadian writer of intercultural importance, Grove deserves recognition as an avant-garde author and a pivotal figure in modern Canadian literature post-Great War. This work introduces previously unpublished and untranslated letters and notes from Grove and his key correspondents, alongside a wealth of contemporaneous documents, photographs, and illustrations that illuminate his life and career. The narrative unfolds through Grove’s personal struggles and literary journey in Europe, his experiences as a teacher in Manitoba's small towns, and the evolution of Canada's literary culture from the 1920s to the 1940s, conveyed through vibrant epistolary exchanges. An epilogue evaluates Grove's legacy in Canadian literature and reviews recent critical perspectives, providing a comprehensive portrait of this influential author.
