The Incomparable Atuk is a satirical novel by Canadian author Mordecai Richler. It was first published in 1963 by McClelland and Stewart. The novel was published as Stick Your Neck Out in the United States.
The Incomparable Atuk, which some say is loosely modeled on Voltaire's L'Ingénu, tells the story of a Canadian Inuit who is transplanted to Toronto and who quickly adopts the greed and pretensions of the big city.
