OH CANADA! OH QUEBEC!
After 125 years of confederation, Quebec is on the verge of holding a referendum to decide its political future, and Mordecai Richler's gloves are off. With a sure satirical eye, Richler - a Quebecer himself - takes a look at what he calls "the western world's goofiest and most unnecessary political crisis."
English-speaking Quebecers endure Draconian language laws prohibiting English or bilingual signs in Montreal because they are seen as an affront to the city's visage linguistique.

OH CANADA! OH QUEBEC!
After 125 years of confederation, Quebec is on the verge of holding a referendum to decide its political future, and Mordecai Richler's gloves are off. With a sure satirical eye, Richler - a Quebecer himself - takes a look at what he calls "the western world's goofiest and most unnecessary political crisis."
English-speaking Quebecers endure Draconian language laws prohibiting English or bilingual signs in Montreal because they are seen as an affront to the city's visage linguistique. Meanwhile, Francophones debate the merits of going it alone as a means of protecting their language and culture. But are they prepared for the massive problems Independence entails? And can the rest of Canada cope with the calamity of a separate Quebec?
When an excerpt from Richler's work-in-progress appeared in The New Yorl(er in the fall of 1991, his supremely controversial opinions unleashed a torrent of commentary ~ both critical and complimentary - from the Canadian press and public. Now, in Olí Canada! Oh Quebec!, Richler expands his arguments, responds to his critics, and takes an illuminating look at blind nationalism in a country where nationhood is seriously under the Qun.
MORDECAI RICHLER'S most recent books include Writers on World War II, an anthology of fiction, poetry, essays, diary entries, letters, and memoirs by an international roster of authors, and Broadsides, a collection of his own reviews and opinions.
His novels include The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz, Cocksure, St. Urhain's Horseman, Joshua Then and Now, and, most recently, the critically acclaimed Solomon Gurskv Was Here. Vissza
