His eight novels, three collections of short stories, and four books of nonfiction\/theory, published between 1968 and 2005, have variously been described as avantgarde, energetically performative, dissident, revisionistic, and a threat to all hierarchies. Educated at Cornell University, New York, and Brandeis University, Massachusetts, Sukenick taught as Professor of English at the University of Colorado, Boulder, from 1975 to 1999, where he was also director of the creative writing program. Sukenick co-founded the publishing house the Fiction Collective (now FC2) and edited the journals \u003ci\u003eAmerican Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBlack Ice Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ronald Sukenick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8798411233\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798798411238\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.73d","brand":"Ronald Sukenick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076083871999,"sku":"9798798411238","price":15.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1b786244-03f1-4611-81dd-5b0bf8601daf.jpg?v=1685463085","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/down-and-in-ronald-sukenick-9798798411238","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
