Description

Review of "I Had a Father: A Post-Modern Biography" by Clark Blaise. According to Proulx - author of such titles as "Postcards," "The Shipping News," and "Brokeback Mountain" - the book captures fragments of the life of Blaise's itinerant and mysterious father, meanwhile spelling out the author's own sort of nomadic Franco American memoir. Blaise, former instructor in the Iowa Writers' Workshop, is the author of numerous other books, including "Lunar Attractions," "If I Were Me," and the collection of short stories, "A North American education. This book review is also available in print in the Spring 1994 edition (Volume 22, Number 2) of Le FAROG Forum, a publication of the Franco-American Centre at the University of Maine.
