Mordecai Richler: An Annotated Bibliography by Michael Darling (ECW Press, 1979)


 

Mordecai Richler Bibliography by Christine Mervart (2011)

Introduction

In 1979, Michael Darling compiled the first and only annotated bibliography of Mordecai Richler’s work. At the time, Darling anticipated the need for updating this research tool, writing “[i]t seems likely that Mordecai Richler will continue to produce important work, which will be the subject of an increasing body of criticism” (Darling, “Mordecai Richler: An Annotated Bibliography” 157). Richler continued to write until his death in 2001, and his works have attracted a substantial amount of criticism from scholars as well as the popular press. However, no updated bibliography of writings by and about Richler has been published. Reinhold Kramer’s Mordecai Richler: Leaving St. Urbain includes the most recent bibliography of Richler’s works; although this list is extensive, it is, as Kramer describes it in his text, selective. Furthermore, Kramer’s bibliography does not include a list of writings about Richler – a list that is included in the present bibliography. Kramer does, however, include several elements that I have not pursued in my project: lists of published interviews with Richler, Richler’s unpublished books, and Richler’s screenplays and radio plays. Kramer’s bibliography therefore constitutes an important resource for bibliographical information on Richler, but does not fulfil the aim of my project: a bibliography of published writings by and about Richler.

Several editorial decisions were made in the compilation of this bibliography. I do not replicate information provided by Darling. This bibliography begins where Darling’s study ends, with two exceptions. First, I provide a comprehensive list of publication information for each edition of Richler’s books – that is to say, I do not start with books and editions published after 1979. Second, I include reference to works published prior to 1979 if they were not referenced in Darling’s bibliography. Generally, however, this bibliography focuses on materials written by and about Richler after 1979.

Additionally, the task of analytical annotations was beyond the scope of this project. The resulting list provides a bibliographic resource for those interested in researching Richler’s writing and criticism over the past three decades. The most frustrating difficulty I encountered throughout this project was tracking down sources that were incorrectly or insufficiently cited in secondary literature. I made a concerted effort to provide accurate citation information. In some cases this unfortunately caused me to exclude materials for which I could not confirm details of publication. This includes the following materials:

Books

  • Richler, Mordecai. The Acrobats. Toronto: Ambassador, 1954.
  • —. Son of a Smaller Hero. Toronto: Collins, 1955.
  • —. A Choice of Enemies. Toronto: Collins, 1957.
  • —. Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz. Toronto: Collins, 1969.

Articles

  • Richler, Mordecai. “Introduction.” Stephen Leacock’s Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town. London: Prion, 2000.
  • Articles written by Richler and published in Vogue, GQ, and Esquire magazines.

Two further sources are extremely difficult if not impossible to comprehensively document: editions of Richler’s work in translation, and writing by and about Richler in newspapers. To compensate for the latter I included newspaper articles cited in scholarly work on Richler; additionally, I cited each article by and about Richler published in the Globe and Mail, since the newspaper’s online searchable archive made such a case study achievable. Documenting these two sources comprehensively, however, remains a task for the next Richler bibliography. [1]

The bibliography is organised in the following categories, in chronological order within each category:
