Reviews From the zine, the Salt Spring Island TATLER (www.saltspring.com/tatler/): «Justin Fowles is not simply good writing, it is great writing. Fluent, fluid, graceful prose so smoothly achieved that one must ascribe to it the description «the art that conceals art». One of our favourites is the fresh, individual work of Mordecai Richler. . . none better than his final novel, Barney»s Version. Justin Fowles is as different from Richler»s work as the mind might conjure. Yet it is our view that [both books] share the honoiur of being equally at the height of their field. They gift us with the best we can wish for books, delightful reading.»
