The Critical Strategy

“Many critics in the past decade have talked about breaking the form of the traditional literary study. Bouraoui actually does it. He makes a significant contribution in his putting into practice the breakthrough called for in critical writing. He does it, basically, by refusing or at least testing, the traditional separation of critical writing from creative writing. He challenges the traditional separation of critic and artist. The manuscript gives us new insights into specific authors. It suggests much more: it suggests a pluralistic approach that allows the complexity of individual authors or works or even genres to maintain their complexity in the face of criticism. Ihab Hassan is one of the few English-language critics to make the kinds of experiments that Bouraoui makes in this manuscript. I find Bouraoui to be more successful than Hassan. Bouraoui calls this book ‘an experiment in genre.’ I would relate it to works by such as Roland Barthes, in that it is avowedly experimental, with the intention of breaking traditional critical paradigms.” — Robert Kroetsch, University of Manitoba
