Description
A grossly inaccurate "memoir" about Canadian folk legends.HenryAdam Svec has been pushing boundaries in Canadian folklore since heunearthed songs by CFL players in Library and Archives Canada, therebythrusting himself into the scene—and the media spotlight. Those spartanpoems are finally included in this anthology, in addition to the fruitsof his subsequent expeditions, but there is much more besides, includinghonest accounts of the folklorist’s myriad trials and tribulations.This experimental and genre-defying book mixes the adventurous energiesof Alan Lomax and Stompin’ Tom, the intertextual conceptualism ofVladimir Nabokov and Mark Z. Danielewski, and the searing intensity ofElizabeth Smart and Chris Kraus."Comically entertaining, presented with ''performative verve'', as novelist Jacob Wren puts it."—Atlantic Books Today"This book is cracking me up—and I don''t even like football—but it isjust so well written."—Robert Dayton, author of The Canadian Romantic
