Product Description
Memories of tangled friendships with Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and some others.

It was the fabulous Summer of 1929, when the literary capital of North America had moved to Paris. Hemingway was reading proofs to A Farewell to Arms, and a few blocks away Fitzgerald was struggling over Tender Is the Night. And Morley Callaghan, his first book published to acclaim in New York, arrived in Paris to share the felicities of the literary life, not just with his two friends, but with James Joyce, Ford Madox Ford, Robert McAlmon - the world Gertrude Stein called the Lost Generation. Amidst these tangled relationships, friendships were lost, too - most particularly between Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and Callaghan - all over the famous boxing match in which the smaller Callaghan knocked Hemingway down and Fitzgerald, the time keeper - stunned by what he was seeing - forgot to call time. A tragic and sad and unforgettable story told in Callaghan's lucid compassionate prose.

5-0 out of 5 stars Better than Hemingway's A Moveable Feast
If you enjoyed A Moveable Feast then you will appreciate Callaghan's That Summer in Paris even more. Callaghan has a terrific writing style that makes for a painless and enjoyable read though it is definitely for the fan of the Paris in the twenties crowd. The book is filled with anecdotes pertaining to the great writers of the 20th Century such as Hemingway, Lewis, Fitzgerald, Joyce, Etc. Etc. Callaghan captures the darker and more fragile side of genius. Do yourself a favor and read this one, it'll stay with any true fan of the "lost generation".

4-0 out of 5 stars Memoir of 1929
Callaghan met Hemingway when they both worked for the Toronto Star.Hemingway wnet to Paris and Callaghan did too, in 1929.This book tells what Callaghan did, besides write.He doesn't say much about his writing but tells of his times with Hemingway, Scott Fitzgerald, James Joyce, and others.It is not too momentous, but it throws another light on what Samuel Putnam had to say in his 1947 book Paris Was Our Mistress.1929 was an idyllic time for Callaghan and the other Americans in Paris, tho I am not sure they knew it. ...

Product Description
Callaghan’s second novel, written while he was living in Paris - imbibing with Joyce and Hemingway - has violence at its core - the story opens with the hanging of an ex-World War One soldier for involuntary murder. But first and foremost it is a story of love, a lovehaunted by that hanging. "It’s never over," the dead man’s sister says, as she seeks to possess the life of her brother’s closest friend, John Hughes, who - "because a hanging draws everybody into it" - contemplates murder himself. The murder of the sister. But he is no blindly violent Harry Trotter of Callaghan’s first novel, Strange Fugitive - no, Hughes’ deterioration is so subtle and so psychologically suggestive that F. Scott Fitzgerald called It’s Never Over Callaghan’s "death house masterpiece."

Product Description

Originally published in New York in 1928, this book announced the coming of the urban novel in Canada through the story of Harry Trotter—a “hero” who cannot escape his tendancy toward brutality. Incapable of reflection, he does not realize that he has become a thug, believing instead that if he feels good, things must be right.

5-0 out of 5 stars The lost (and now found) seminal crime novel masterpiece
This is a new edition of a novel I've always considered an early classic of the hard-boiled crime genre - written by an author who became better known for (a) being Hemingway's friend and (b) his later intense works of conscience, of social and religious morality.

Now I've got some support for that view by the new introduction in this edition by James Dubro. Dubro's has uncovered the real-life gang warfare that was taking place in Toronto and being reported by the Toronto Star where Morley Callaghan worked - and which obviously influenced him. Dubro argues that Callaghan's first novel may have been the first-ever in the genre of the gangster novel.

Strange Fugitive is Callaghan's first and, judging by it at the time, you might think he would become another James M. Cain.

Far different from Callaghan's usual earnest and tortured central characters, Harry Trotter is a rough, amoral figure who loses his job and his virtuous wife Vera on whom he regularly cheated. He drifts into bootlegging, becoming a leading gangster in 1920s prohibitionist Toronto.

Trotter is an uncomplicated strongman, who seizes what he wants, sleeps with whomever he feels like, wipes out competitors and never worries about whom he hurts. However Trotter keeps thinking about getting back with Vera. This and hints about his childhood relationship with his long-dead parents lead one to realize he is disturbed, though he is not introspective enough to realize this himself. The point of view is always that of the unperceptive Trotter. As a result, the important themes of the story are revealed between the lines, by the reader connecting random thoughts. It's all bubbling beneath the factual surface.

This is also one of Callaghan's most sparsely written stories. The narrative is delivered matter-of-factly, without a lot of adjective and adverbs, and with long scenes of sharp dialogue without attribution - again much like the hard-edged crime fiction just being developed then.

The dispassionate tone of the reporting, the author's voice never supplanting his subject's and with only a faint hint of irony, makes this the closest Callaghan comes to adopting the style being propagated at the time by his modernist colleagues like Joyce and Hemingway.

Compared to his later work, Callaghan in Strange Fugitive is depicting an earlier world, a more primitive character, and it's thrilling for the perceptive reader.

Editorial Review

Product Description
The Ontario farmland described with arresting clarity in White Narcissus is, despite its beauty and abundance, “a place of choked vistas” where bitterness and rivalry have taken root. Against this backdrop Raymond Knister portrays the triumph of longing over despair, as his hero, Richard Milne, struggles to redeem his childhood sweetheart from the spiritual imprisonment of her parents’ home.

First published in 1929, White Narcissus was a groundbreaking work in the development of the Canadian realist novel, fusing Knister’s imagistic sensibility with the deeply felt experience of a real time and place.

Knister died tragically at the age of thirty-three, before his contribution was recognized in his own country and before the full potential of his remarkable talent could be realized.

Chapters: Such Is My Beloved, a Time for Judas, More Joy in Heaven. Source: Wikipedia. Free updates online. Not illustrated. Excerpt: Such Is My Beloved is a novel by Canadian writer Morley Callaghan. It was first published in 1934 by Charles Scribner's Sons in New York and Macmillan of Canada in Toronto. Such Is My Beloved takes place in a city experiencing the economic hardships of the Great Depression. The main character is Father Stephen Dowling, a young, exuberant priest searching for the meaning of Gods love. Dowling decides to try and help two young prostitutes, Ronnie and Midge, turn their lives around. The priest goes to great lengths to try and help them, such as giving them money and clothes, while trying to find them jobs. As the story progresses, Dowling becomes increasingly involved in the girls lives. He exhibits agape for the prostitutes and does everything he can to help them redeem their lives. His relationship with the prostitutes is condemned by his rich, self-righteous parishioners and his bishop. In the end, the girls are arrested for prostitution and sent away. Dowling feels that he has failed the girls and becomes grief-stricken. His anguish over the girls fate causes him to lose his sanity and subsequently he is removed from the church and sent away to an insane asylum. In the end, Dowling has a beautiful moment of clarity in which he sacrifices his own sanity to God to spare the girls souls. The novel closes on his realization of the purely Christian love he bears for Ronnie, Midge and for all of humanity. Such Is My Beloved is set in a modern city (easily identifiable as Toronto) in Canada during the Great Depression. It is set in a generic society so that the reader does not get caught up in the location, but rather focuses on the...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=5624798 ... Read more
