    Extractions: Volume 97, Issue 11 November 10, 1997 Arts by bruce haug An interview with biographer James King James King, a biographer and English professor at McMaster University, has worked to reinvent the perception of one of the most important figures in Canadian consciousness. In his new book, The Life of Margaret Laurence, King uses everything from unpublished letters to conversations with friends in order to unmask the real issues that surrounded her life and death, and led her to the forefront of the Canadian literary scene. Laurence, one of Canada's finest female authors, is best known for her novels The Stone Angel, A Jest of God, The Fire-Dwellers, and The Diviners. Throughout her life, Laurence had been lionized by the public and revered by many as a predominant shaper of post-war Canadian literature, setting the pace for other Canadian women like Margaret Atwood and Alice Munro. Posthumously she has been widely honoured with gatherings as well as being featured on a Canadian postage stamp. Although her life has been the subject of countless lectures and literary critiques, both during her life and after her death, King's biography is the first full-length treatment of her life as one of the most beloved figures in Canada's cultural history.
