"Collecting Stamps Would Have Been More Fun": Canadian Publishing and the Correspondence of Sinclair Ross, co-editor Jordan Stouck (
University of Alberta Press 2010) Eli McLaren in The Bull Calf Review writes, "David and Jordan Stouck have made a fine contribution to Canadian literary history by presenting these archived and privately held documents. A deftly annotated, illustrated supplement to the former’s 2005 biography (As For Sinclair Ross), "Collecting Stamps" plunges us into the mind of a talented artist baffled in his prime by the Canadian book trade and finally unable, as an old man, to agree with his own fame." •
Arthur Erickson: An Architect’s Life (
Douglas & McIntyre 2013) Author David Stouck, acclaimed for his earlier biographies of Ethel Wilson and Sinclair Ross, demonstrates here once again why his work has been praised as imaginative, incisive and compelling. Grounded in interviews with Erickson and his family, friends and clients, as well as the resources of extensive public archives,
Arthur Erickson is both an intimate portrait of the man and a stirring account of how Erickson made his buildings work. Beautifully written and superbly researched, it is also a provocative look at the phenomenon of cultural heroes and the nature of what we call "genius." In a review by MacLeans, Ken MacQueen writes, "Stouck, a professor emeritus at SFU, offers a serious, sympathetic portrait of a walking contradiction." The British Columbian says, "David Stouck has written a remarkable history. More than a biography, it is an encompassing account of a remarkable figure in later modern Canadian and international cultural history. Stouck recovers the spirit and material record of someone remarkable for qualities of personality and creativity as well as their ambivalence." == References ==
