Hot off the press
On A Message for the Emperor:
"Mark Frutkin's best book since Fabrizio's Return." —The Ottawa Citizen
On The Love Monster:
"In her debut novel, Ottawa author and poet Missy Marston is both fearless and quirky in her approach to some of the more difficult aspects of being human." —Quill and Quire
On Stopping for Strangers:
"His characters are memorable ones, their dilemmas familiar, their judgments and actions not always for the best. Mr. Griffin’s writing deserves a wide audience." —The Globe and Mail
"Rapid, it renders you dizzy. Solid, it knocks you off balance. Swift and sudden, its surprises leave you winded. This is Spinning Side Kick."—The Telegraph
On Skullduggery:
"A delight to read and read again. Asa Boxer is a true master of language- and he knows it. This collection is at once belly-shakingly funny, piercingly insightful, ironic, and melodically composed... .If poetry was ever 'meant' to be some way, this is it." —2011 QWF Jury
On With a Closed Fist:
"This is a wicked, incisive, brutal memoir that moves with breakneck speed from incident to incident, from rats in the toilet to roaches cascading down walls, from lecherous uncles to empty fridges, from angry cops to unforgivably naive social worker students." —The Globe and Mail
