About the late Eugene Cloutier

Eugene Cloutier (1921-1975) was a well-known Quebec author and broadcaster. Educated at Laval University and the Sorbonne, he devoted the bulk of his career to writing novels, television and radio scripts, and travel books. His first novel, Les temoins (1953), was awarded the Prix David and was followed by Les inutiles (1956), which won the Prix du Cercle du livre de France. No Passport is a translation of Cloutier's two-volume account of his cross-Canada journeyings, Le Canada sans passeport (1967). The Oxford Companion to Canadian Literature singled out No Passport for its freshness of approach, its openness to new impressions and experience, and its abundance of humorous and telling incidents.
