The article presents the author's insights on Simon Gray's vision of Halifax, Nova Scotia as a writer and his life in Dalhousie University. The author notes that Gray views Halifax as a home away from his homeland England, as a Canadian version of an artificial England called Raj, and as an Athenian agora. The author also discusses Gray's novel "Colmain," which represents the social life in Halifax and Gray's satires and point of views as a writer.
