Review Quotes
"Thrice
Upon a Time is a wildly inventive novel..." – The Ottawa
Citizen, Fall 1991
"There's a
far-reaching imagination at work in this book.." The Globe &
Mail, August 1990
"Genni
Gunn's fine novel, Thrice Upon a Time, is a challenging combination of
narratives that rewards the extra effort needed to read it...This novel is a
creation of much originality, very successful in its newness, and well arranged
-- the sort of book one wished would continue another hundred
pages." – University of Toronto
Quarterly, Fall 1991
"Thrice Upon a Time is impressive in both craft
and complexity." – Books in
Canada
"What is fascinating in the knitting, unravelling and
reknitting pattern of this story is the orchestration of voices. Gunn is a
trained musician with a perfect ear. She knows these women and they are right on
pitch." -- The Vancouver Sun, November 1990
"The poet in Gunn transforms the terrain into a magical
and memorable landscape." –
Kingston's Alternative
Bi-weekly
"... a beautifully written, many-layered novel."
-- The Whig-Standard
