From the author of Solomon Gursky Was Here, shortlisted for the 1990 Booker Prize and winner of the Commonwealth Writers Prize 1990, comes a broadside of outrageous remarks, irreverent wisdom and wickedly accurate criticism. Whether surveying the international literary scene or considering the excesses of pop psychology, Mordecai Richler attacks his diverse subjects with relish and devatsating wit. Broadsides brings together Richler's best essays, reviews and articles, written over the last thirty years for such publications as Esquire, Playboy, Gentleman's Quarterly and the New York Times Book Review.
