Beschreibung:
Randy Boyagoda is the author of six books, including the novels Governor of the Northern Province, Beggar¿s Feast, and Original Prin. His work has been nominated for the Scotiabank Giller Prize, IMPAC Dublin Literary Prize, and named a Globe and Mail Best Book of the year and selected as a New York Times Book Review Editor¿s Choice, in addition to generating international acclaim. A regular contributor to CBC Radio and to publications in North America and Great Britain, he is a professor of English at the University of Toronto, where he lives with his wife and their four daughters.
Wordsworth wrote that the child is the father to the man, and in On Fatherhood, Randy Boyagoda asks why that might be. Matching his own personal experience¿he has four daughters and cares for his own eighty-year old father¿to a great array of reading and watching, On Fatherhood is a wide-ranging exploration of the joyful difficulties, and difficult joys, of being a father in the twenty-first century.
