That first novel, \u003ci\u003eThree Wogs\u003c\/i\u003e, was named Book of the Year by Encyclopedia Britannica and nominated for the National Book Award, as was his second novel, \u003ci\u003eDarconville's Cat\u003c\/i\u003e (1981), which Anthony Burgess called one of the 99 best novels of the 20th century. Since then Theroux has published numerous other books, won several awards, and has been the subject of academic studies and theses. In addition to Burgess, he has been praised by such writers as Saul Bellow, Guy Davenport, Robertson Davies, Fred Exley, Jonathan Franzen, William H. Gass, Norman Mailer, D. Keith Mano, Cormac McCarthy, James McCourt, Annie Proulx, John Updike, and Paul West. \u003ci\u003eAlexander Theroux: A Fan's Notes \u003c\/i\u003eis the first book-length study of Theroux's complete body of work, concluding with a chapter on his contentious relationship with his best-selling brother Paul Theroux. Critic Steven Moore, who has known Theroux for nearly 40 years and helped with the publication of some of his books, illuminates Theroux's work in a scholarly yet accessible style.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Moore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1953409059\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781953409058\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zerogram Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Steven Moore","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43982483325183,"sku":"9781953409058","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bf62f4de-3b8d-42a1-8bf2-baf18489491d.jpg?v=1683261416","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alexander-theroux-steven-moore-9781953409058","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
