With the narrative energy of a psychological detective story, it compares the published book to its holograph manuscript. Like Frederick Philip Grove and Grey Owl, Glassco too has transformed himself into a person of his own creation. Literary subterfuge pervades not only the premise on which Memoirs of Montparnasse is founded, but also the dialogue, the plot structure, the characterizations, and the events that are supposed to have happened. This subterfuge contributes to establishing Glassco's distinctive position in Canadian literary history, that of a twentieth-century successor to the literary dandies, aesthetes, and decadents of nineteenth-century England and France.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Kokotailo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1550220373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781550220377\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e ECW Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 121\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Philip Kokotailo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44138629857535,"sku":"9781550220377","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_201367b3-a8ab-45b1-a73e-29abc415c184.jpg?v=1687900702","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-glasscos-richer-world-philip-kokotailo-9781550220377","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
