Mordecai Richler: A Life in Ten Novels (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780595372089)

'He has no skin, only blood.He wants to bleed for everybody."

If the smell of the stable repels you;
If you don't like trouble;
If conflicted attitudes toward God and the Bible bother you;
Stay away from this book.

If you prefer writers who keep their skin on;
If you're not into vengeance, parody, or satire;
If you can't laugh uproariously at others and yourself;
You're probably not reading Richler.

But if Richler is your kind of writer and you want to know more about why and how he writes;
If you're curious about the way his life penetrates his fiction;
Welcome aboard!
