Beskrivning

First published in 1969, Ray Smith's Cape Breton is the Thought-Control Centre of Canada remains as refreshing, innovative and important today as it has in every previous incarnation. Sophisticated, playful, crafted, sly, self-referential and extremely funny, it marks the beginning of a long and important, if unfortunately under appreciated, career by one of Canada's best humorists and innovative story-tellers.

Ray Smith's collection "is a postmodern collage that neatly puts the boots to the kind of earnest Canadian nationalism running rampant in this country at the time."--Steven Beattie
