Robert Lecker teaches English at McGill University.

“Lecker tackles Blaise's unattractiveness head on, giving us ways of valuing them, beginning gently to reconcile us to the necessity and the larger importance of what seems at first glance only an unremitting egoism in Blaise's prose, showing us what fine art results.”  —Matrix


“This book has definite value, being the most comprehensive study of his writing to date and containing a bibliography of other writing about Blaise.”  —Canadian Materials

“A fine analysis . . . challenging and original thesis . . . Robert Lecker has contributed valuable insights into Clark Blaise's fiction.”  —English Studies in Canada

“Lecker has produced a polished, fascinating reading that foregrounds significant issues not only in Blaise's work but also on the theoretical plane.”  —Letters in Canada
