Clippings.

Includes typed (computer output) interview e-mailed to Eric McCormack on Wednesday, July 22, 1998. This is an interview which was conducted previously with the author. Themes covered in this interview include:

  • Eric McCormack's experiences of Canada both in personal and literary terms;
  • the importance of satire and parody in his writing;
  • the extent to which the writer figure is a symbolic projection into the fictional world;
  • the materiality of words as both destroyers and preservers;
  • the extent to which his works are metafictions, fictions about making fictions;
  • intertextuality in his works;
  • Postmodernism and his works;
  • the extent to which his writing is genre-centered;
  • the connection between his landscapes and the sense of dread they evoke;
  • whether or not First Blast... is more of a mainstream Canadian novel about a character's growth and development;
  • whether there is an aesthetic doctrine lurking behind his works.

McCormack, Eric P.
