Paperback. Condition: New. Bertram Brooker won the country's first Governor General's Award for literature in 1936 for his novel "Think of the Earth", and his explosive, experimental paintings hang in every major gallery in the country. He was Canada's first multidisciplinary avantgardist, successfully experimenting in literatur…e, visual arts, film, and theatre. Brooker brought all of his experimental ambitions to his short fiction and prose. "The Wrong World" presents a rich sampling of his prose work, much of it previously unpublished, which adds new insight into his aesthetic ambitions. Working during an incredible period of transition in Canadian society, Brooker's stories document Canada's evolution from a provincial colony into a modern, urban country. His essays participated in that evolution by advocating a passionate awakening of the arts, the end of prudish sentiment and censorship, and a radical rethinking of the nature of war. They capture the limitations and hypocrisies of the Canadian social contract and argue for a more just and spiritual society. His stories humanize his social vision by dramatizing the psychological and emotional cost of Canada's transition into a modern civilization.In turn devastating, penetrating and poignant, Brooker's prose works offer a sharply focussed window into the turbulent interwar years in Canada.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. Originally published in 1936, this edition features a new introduction by poet and academic Gregory Betts (editor of The Wrong World: Bertram Brooker's Stories and Essays). A good mystery written in the style of the 1930s but it should also be read in the context of Art and the Group of Seven. Broo…ker is considered a member and the first Canadian to exhibit abstract art. Several of the Group were followers of Theosophy and the cult leader appears to be based on Madam Blavatsky. A Mortimer Hood Mystery written under the pseudonym of Huxley Herne. From the cover: A first-rate detective novel that explores media's manipulation of a gullible public. A cult leader announces a miracle will take place and she will rise to heaven. A medium prophesies the date, publicity gets to work, and all of America hums with anticipation. On the appointed day, she disappears and scientist Mortimer Hood, there to verify the miracle, must investigate how and whether the whole thing is a hoax, or if the priestess has been murdered. Bertram Brooker (illustrator).
