By Darrin McCloskey
Li’l Story, the true story of the rise and fall of the Great Canadian Novel is the frustrated, angst-ridden, bitter voice of one small misunderstood story, known as Li’l Story who, fed up with the unfulfilled promise of becoming a novel, decides to set out on his own and become the Great Canadian Novel.

“Brilliant! Highly entertaining and erudite too - if those two "e" words still mean anything in contemporary writing.
Like Voltaire's masterpiece, Candide, Darrin McCloskey's Li'l Story tells of an innocent abroad in the wide world of hard knocks and ignorance, but this particular innocent is the story itself; grammar and syntax battling the evils of mis-usage and loose prose and lazy thinking.
As a stylist and inventive writer, Darrin McCLoskey can be classified with Voltaire and James Thurber. Read him!
This is far too good to be merely labelled as a Canadian novel, it more than holds it own anywhere in todays English literary world.”
