Perhaps because of this variety of interest and production, Glassco has not aroused a great deal of literary-critical attention until very recently. John Glassco established at least four discrete reputations in different areas of literature: as the writer of quiet, elegant, sophisticated poems as a sensitive and skilled translator, especially of poetry from French Canada as the author of Memoirs of Montparnasse, a superb semi-fictional evocation of Paris in the late 1920s and (an area in which the present reviewer has not followed him) as purveyor of high-class pornography and erotica.
