World Body: Selected Stories of Clark Blaise, cartea 04
Autor Clark Blaise Michael Augustinen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 2006
Clark Blaise is more than just a local colourist who ferrets out the curious details of marginal' communities in order to delight cosmopolitan readers. Rather, if we consider the full arc of his work, we see that for nearly fifty years he has been challenging the way that we understand the concept of place in contemporary Canadian and American literature.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
Clark Blaise's fiction and its (presumed) autobiographical sources have drifted further and further apart in recent years, and "World Body" is the latest evidence. The first three volumes of his New & Selected Stories ("Southern," "Pittsburgh" and "Montreal Stories") are celebrations of variant lives within the familiar outline of a not-quite Clark Blaise whom Clark Blaise would nevertheless recognize. Volume Four explodes the easy identification of a writer with his own life-experience. In "World Body," Blaise weaves an intricate tapestry of terror and desire; the geography of Blaise's concerns is unique in the modern canon.
