What was once an extract of my 'intellectual biography in bookland' It's All About Me, Bowering and McFadden now stands proudly apart, its roller blades attached and ready for a run about town. This second expanded edition of 2019 gathers together all my critical work on these much loved and influential Canadian writers of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. While falling well short of a complete critical analysis, these essays and interviews provide a starting point for future explorations. Edited and improved from their original journal publications in Books in Canada, Paragraph and Word, with a new introduction and four appendices. Gordon Phinn has achieved a rare feat: he's brought the ivory tower of academia back to earth with a wonderfully rambling mind-bending cross-referencing, wild and witty, deftly scribed yet conversational, insightful and ultimately delightful peek inside the minds and works of two of Canada's most original best-loved literary wizards. Dive right in. The stream of Gordon's astute consciousness is clear, welcome and warm.- Stephen Roxborough, author, this wonderful perpetual beautiful and Ego To Earthschool.
