Publisher's Synopsis
Mosaic Man is Sukenick's sixth novel and was originally published in 1999. This new edition of the novel is the definitive version of the text and represents volume 06 of our Ronald Sukenick Edition. Carefully proofread and with a new design, it was produced in close cooperation with Julia Frey (now Julia Nolet), the widow and heir of Ronald Sukenick.
RONALD SUKENICK (1932-2004) was one of the most important innovators, editors, and critics of US-American literature. His eight novels, three collections of short stories, and four books of nonfiction/theory, published between 1968 and 2005, have variously been described as avantgarde, energetically performative, dissident, revisionistic, and a threat to all hierarchies. Educated at Cornell University, New York, and Brandeis University, Massachusetts, Sukenick taught as Professor of English at the University of Colorado, Boulder, from 1975 to 1999, where he was also director of the creative writing program. Sukenick co-founded the publishing house the Fiction Collective (now FC2) and edited the journals American Book Review and Black Ice Magazine.
