...collector and connoisseur, finds himself stymied. It is bad enough that he has turned up hints of fakery in Cornish's long and otherwise exemplary career. These suspicions, if proved and published, will offend the immensely rich and powerful Cornish family and sully the reputation of the Cornish Trust, one of Canada's most respectable financial institutions. Worse, the aspiring biographer must admit that he cannot determine the influences that molded his man. Research has led only to the impenetrable mystery suggested by the old English proverb: "What's bred in the bone will not out of the flesh...

Hence Rappaport is less a problem drama than a kind of love story. Little depicts a man who has survived by staying out of harm's way. Knowing that he is in danger of being pensioned off from his job as an apartment-house superintendent, he switches...

Yet in his patient but dogged style, Deng has continually tested the doctrine's outer limits.
