	thirdspace 5/2 - : Eating, Abjection, and Transformation
		As Mark Libin states in “Befriending the racialized fiction of Hiromi Goto,” this excess is “a central concern in Chorus of Mushrooms” and is reflected in how “Goto punctuates her text with extravagant descriptions of tastes and odours and populates her novel with exorbitant characters” (103).
		Goto plays with this line in The Kappa Child and Chorus of Mushrooms as she explores complex ways of belonging and not belonging in a joyful combination of abjection, pain, eating, laughter, and myth.
		Goto's choice to use the same settings and names in Chorus of Mushrooms as Kogawa's text is an obvious sign she is writing back both to Obasan and to this canonization of the Japanese-Canadian experience.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Hiromi Goto
		Japanese-Canadian prose writer Hiromi Goto was born in 1966 in Chiba-Ken, Japan, and much of her writing incorporates a reimagination of the space of Japan into the Canadian prairies of her childhood.
		Goto’s early move influences much of her writing, appearing both as a recurring setting and as a symbol of Canadian racism against people perceived as foreign.
		Goto makes a more complete move in the direction of science fiction and fantasy with the publication of The Kappa Child (2001), which won her the James Tiptree Jr, award, recognizing science fiction and fantasy books that also interrogate gender.
