Robert Adams, former lecturer at Concordia University, is a popular literary critic who holds an enormously successful lecture series in Montreal and Toronto each autumn and spring. His first collection of reviews was a bestseller, and this second Love of Reading is destined to appeal to literati everywhere. Adams writes with passion, and a quiet humour, and with an intelligent respect for the author and text, supplying literary and historical background to enrich the reader’s experience of each book. These fourteen insightful reviews include The Hiding Place by Trezza Azzopardi, White Teeth by Zadie Smith, and Fima by Amoz Oz. mRb
