    An Australian View Point As an Australian who lived for three and a half years in Quebec, I found this book very useful to show my friends here in Brisbane what I have told them is true. This book is invaluable because we in Australia are not only geographically a million miles away from Quebec we are a million miles ahead, and Mordecai Richler has cpatured everything that is Quebec. This book is a must for those trying to understand the psyche of the Quebecoir. Requiem for a derided country For anyone hoping to gain an understanding of the pre- (and now post-) millennial angst that often grips great swaths of our country at the mere mention of the terms 'distinct society' and 'sovereignty association', Richler's book is a solid and engaging read. And for anyone familiar with the oft-maligned language laws in effect in Quebec, Richler's satirical notion that similar constraints might usefully be placed on the volume of spoken English can sometimes cut too close for comfort ...

    , Canada. Died July 3, 2001 Occupation Author essayist screenwriter Mordecai Richler CC (January 27, 1931 – July 3, 2001) was a Canadian author, screenwriter and essayist. A leading critic called him "the great shining star of his Canadian literary generation" and a pivotal figure in the country's history. His best known works are The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz Barney's Version , and the Jacob Two-Two children's stories. Richler's uncompromising opinions on contemporary Canada easily matched, and sometimes exceeded, the satirical sting of his fiction.

Set in Spain, it deals with the experiences of a young Canadian painter with a group of disillusioned expatriates and revolutionaries. Shortly afterward, Richler settled in England. He returned to Montreal in the 1970s. His subsequent novels, which manifest evidence of the poverty and anti-Semitism he experienced during his early years, include Son of a Smaller Hero (1955) and A Choice of Enemies (1957), both dealing with angry, confused modern heroes;

    La Condition Humaine in its English translation its title, Man's Fate . The novel was based on the Shanghai insurrection of 1927. The communist Reds take over the city and a dubious alliance with Chiang Kai-shek's Blues, who then turned against them and re-take the city. In the last pages of the novel, Malraux's protagonist, a European revolutionary, is among a group captured by Chiang Kai-shek's men. They're fed alive, one by one, into the funnel of a coal-fired train engine. In a final act of heroism Malraux's protagonist surrenders his only cyanide pill to a young comrade. Lying awake in bed in Montreal, born too late to have served in the Second World War, I hoped that one day I would be capable of making just such a sacrifice or perhaps something more modest in the name of a noble cause. Instead, well into my sixties, I found myself embroiled in, let's face it, Canada's longest running opera bouffe . A far from life and death struggle, over the size English lettering and outdoor commercial signs in Montreal. I manned the barricades, so to speak, for the legal right to munch unilingually labelled kosher matzah's in Quebec for more than sixty days a year. I also protested the right of a pet shop parrot to be unilingually English. As a consequence, nice people still stop me on the street and thank me for taking a stand. It's embarrassing, for my stand, such as it is, hardly qualifies me as a latter day Spartacus or Tom Paine or Rosa Luxemburg.
