Mordecai Richler’s appearances at the Writers Festival were legendary. And now, Charles Foran, with this definitive, detailed and intimate life story of Richler – the lion of Canadian literature – comes to life again. Foran, who had access to family letters and archives, used them to draw this rich and passionate portrait of an outsized and outrageous man whose real life reads like fiction. A young bohemian and irreverent writer, Richler was also a passionate and controversial Canadian, a loyal friend and deeply romantic lover. Foran captures his essence, warts and all. Bill Richardson speaks with Foran about Richler the man and the “barnacled” myths that persist about his social graces.Download from iTunes.
