Drache, Sharon Abron Corporate Author. Like Dorothy Parker shouted at the top of her voice, Barabra Klein Muskrat is endowed with a zany, exaggerated theatricality.
The result is an outrageous satirical romp that calls to mind Philip Roth and Dorothy Parker. About this product Description Fiction. The interrelated stories of this pseudo-memoir introduce readers to Barbara Klein-Muskrat, a successful author of fiction and freelance book reviewer. Spanning some thirty years in her personal and professional life, Barbara irreverently acquaints readers with her challenges related to her schizophrenic literary career, divided between writing fiction and reviewing it.
As Nathan Zuckerman faithfully serves as alterego to Philip Roth in his Nathan Zuckerman books, Barbara Klein-Muskrat weaves fictional tales, at times borrowing the colouring and location of memoir. And yet Barbara Klein-Muskrat remains a unique summation of her own idiosyncrasies, which include fierce loyalty to family and friends, a relentlessly frustrating gullibility, and a stubborn determination to defend at all costs her wacky and unfashionable ethnic and patriotic proclivities.
Drache writes more powerfully of life's enigmas than of its documented graspable elements. Publication Data Place of Publication. Show more Show less.

Working in the isolated setting of Rocky Mountain House, Angus secretly marries a Cree woman, who dies in a measles epidemic while he is on an extended business trip. An exquisite series of meditations on memory, evanescence and the land. Ena is self-contained, and careful not to reach too far into the turbulent emotional lives of others. The 21st century sustains one significant commonality with the decades of the preceding century. The contributors explore the relational aspects of difference and the implications for re-conceptualizing anti-racism discourse and practice. The traditional perception of African women is that they toil day and night amidst grinding poverty while facing harsh cultural, traditional and social prejudices.
