Magazine attacks Farley Mowat's credibility
"... one of the biggest fibs in Canadian literary history ...Farley
Mowat did not conduct the Arctic research he described in his books
Never Cry Wolf, People of the Deer and The Desperate People...the elfish Mowat, his nose extending Pinocchio-like towards the edge of the
page...titled A Real Whopper, is a heavily documented assertion that
Mowat, 74, leaned more on fiction than on fact when writing his
books...Goddard discredits Mowat's accounts by using documents recently
made public at the National Archives of Canada and journals the author
sold two years ago ...portrays Mowat as an opportunist more concerned
with his love life than the fate of the wolves or the Inuit...Mowat
describes Goddard's work as "bullshit, pure and simple." |
