505 | _a"A rich selection of Bertram Brooker's rare and unpublished stories, essays, and manifestos. The Wrong World proves that Brooker brought all of his experimental ambitions to his short fiction, essays, and manifestos. His stories document Canada's evolution from a provincial colony into a modern, urban civilization. His essays participate in that evolution by advocating for a passionate awakening of the arts, for the end of prudish sentiment and censorship, and for a radical rethinking of the nature of war. In turn devastating, penetrating, and poignant, Brooker's prose offers a sharply focused lens on a turbulent time in Canada." (Book Cover) | ||
