Fair New World: Original Press Kit (1994-95)

Fair New World was originally published in Vancouver, B.C., in May 1994, by Backlash Books.

The novel was Lou Tafler’s farewell gift to Canada. White male philosophers were so disfavored
by politically correct feminist hiring policies that he was obliged to accept a position in the USA.

Fair New World became an immediate succès de scandale, attracting Canadian media attention coast-to-coast.
Here are some of the reports and reviews from that period.
