Reviews

“In Lost Passport, Fraser Sutherland – a poet, editor, lexicographer, and journalist, as well as Lacey’s longtime correspondent and confidant – discourses on his friend’s extraordinary vices and tribulations.”

~ QUILL & QUIRE

"Sutherland's strength is this deceptive simplicity, a verbal clarity and concision that come from his long practice of observation."
                                                            ~ THE GLOBE AND MAIL

"Throughout the book, Sutherland is witty, his poetic persona endearingly self-deprecating ... on the whole, these are competent poems that are enjoyable to read and contemplate."
                                                            ~ QUILL & QUIRE

"In this entertaining, often startling, compilation of prose and poetry, the things that shall be redeemed are many and varied, described in mockelevated language. This is not a bleak collection but a fascinating one."
