The late John Glassco is now the subject of biographer Brian Busby's new blog.
John Glassco (1909-1981) is best known for his Memoirs of Montparnasse, the controversial chronicle of his youthful adventures and encounters with celebrities in the Paris of James Joyce, Gertrude Stein, and Ernest Hemingway. Less known are his poetry, his instrumental role in the foundation of modern translation, and his numerous – and widely popular – works of pornography.
In A Gentleman of Pleasure, author Brian Busby recounts Glassco's life and work including his background as a member of a once prominent and powerful Montreal family.
Busby's latest Glassco blog post features a short tour of Glassco's Montreal haunts.
