Cascadian literature

Cascadian literature refers to the body of written works—such as poetry, fiction, and essays—created by authors from the Pacific Northwest region of North America, including parts of Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia. It reflects the area's unique natural landscapes, cultural diversity, and social issues, often emphasizing themes like nature, environmentalism, urban life, and regional identity. Cascadian literature helps express and explore the spirit and complexities of this distinctive geographical and cultural region, contributing to broader American and Canadian literary conversations.
