Canned lit: (Parodies Regained, Then Frozen, and Thawed)

The man whom many critics call our [Canada's] finest satirist and who last ruffled feathers with his stinging attack on Canada's bureaucracy in The Great Wiped Out North has taken full aim at our fabled practitioners of belles lettres.

The result is more than 100 irreverent biographies of Canadian authors and parodies of their works.

Spiced with the provocative drawings of Graham Pilsworth, Gould's book leads you on a merry assault on the Canadian literary psyche.
