John Glassco: The Canadian Wordsworth
|
Abstract |
Montrealer John Glassco (1909-1981) was described in one obituary as a "poet, translator, and pornographer, and an elegant memoirist of the Paris years." He is best remembered for his fictive autobiography, Memoirs of Montparnasse (1970). However, the author points out that Glassco wished to be remembered for his poetry. He was the author of four volumes of verse -- The Deficit Made Flesh (1958), A Point of Sky (1964), Selected Poems (1971) and Montreal (1973). The author examines Glassco's poetic contribution to Canadian literature.
