Matt Cohen - 1942-1999 - ATTLC • LTAC
February 21, 2019 - His readers will discover that no matter what perspective he came from, whether it was from “the inside,” from the point of view of a dejected Pat Frank passing through the fictional town of Salem, or from “the outside” in the form of Avram and Gabriella in mediaeval Spain, or even Nadine as she made her way out of the Holocaust and into the Canadian social fabric, Matt was always talking about the same things. That he did so not only as a writer of adult fiction, but as Teddy Jam, the fictional Maritime author, is proof of his immense energy and versatility.

In Memoriam: Matt Cohen (1942-99) – Greg Hollingshead
Six months earlier, in the British Library, trying to catch up on Canadian Literature because I had to teach it, I’d been bowled over by Columbus and the Fat Lady, and now here was the author. In gratitude I lent him my Robert Crumb collection, and he came to my class on The Disinherited and explained how he wrote novels by first deciding on the kinds of words he wanted in them. Which is probably, he added, a terrible way to write novels. At the beginning of May we drove back to Ontario together. Matt had just bought a truck with a rebuilt engine and felt we should go easy on it.
