"Richard G. Stern hat als Literaturprofessor und Autor eine Generation amerikanischer Schriftsteller wie Philip Roth geprägt. Ihm selbst blieb grosser Ruhm verwehrt."

"Mr. Stern wrote more than 20 books of fiction and nonfiction, mostly while teaching literature and creative writing at the University of Chicago. There he was at the center of a writerly cohort that included Philip Roth and Saul Bellow, and his classroom became a showcase for visiting literary eminences."
"Mr. Stern's first novel, 'Golk,' was published in 1960. His other novels include 'Stitch,' 'Natural Shocks' and 'A Father's Words.'
He received the Award of Merit from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters in 1985. Mr. Stern also was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1973 and the Chicago Tribune's Heartland Award in 1995."
