What are the key stylistic elements of Margaret Atwood's prose style, or Mordecai Richler's? Does Robertson Davies's fictional style resemble that of a 19th-century British novel? Do Morley Callaghan and Ernest Hemingway share stylistic mannerisms?After many years of computer-assisted analysis, Robert Cluett is able to suggest answers to the above questions and to reveal how major Canadian writers establish their own writing style. Written in a lively style itself, and complete with charts and graphs, this book is the first attempt to address specific stylistic issues in Canadian fiction.Cluett, Robert is the author of 'Canadian Literary Prose' with ISBN 9781550220988 and ISBN 1550220985.
