About
Norman Levine's Canada Made Me, a bitter, critical reassessment of the moral and cultural values of 'the polite nation,' proved so shocking it took 21 years--despite initial acclaim when released in 1958--to see a Canadian edition. A record of his three-month journey from coast to coast, Levine's vision of Canada's seedy and unpleasant underworld is now a laconic classic.

"Far better than any book I've ever read about Canada."

"Mr. Levine is a true artist, who grinds his bones - and anything else he can lay his hands on - to make his bread."
Bernard Levin, The Sunday Times
"Norman Levine sees with a clear eye a good deal of the tragic comedy of human life. And he writes in a marvellously clean, naked prose which is a joy to read."
Edward McCourt, The Montrealer
