Praise for Vancouver Memories:

“With the narrative in the form of fictional diary entries, Vancouver Memories reveals the emerging and evolving joys and challenges of living and studying for a year far from home. Through an effective and innovative combination of writing and images, the novel presents an engaging representation of Vancouver’s cultural complexity and natural beauty. A significant creative accomplishment!”— Dr. Carl Leggo, poet and professor, Dept. of Language and Literacy Education, University of British Columbia.

“A story of unspoken longing. Beyond culture, family and friends, there is the calling of your soul... to a loving partner, your career path, your destiny. Despite heartache and pressures, Erika and Sandy learn to trust themselves, each other, and their intuition as they define, and set out to build, a shared life on their own terms.” —Cynthia Sharp is a Vancouver author who has just completed editing an anthology of Canadian poems combined with recipes by the poets. A regular contributor to Cradle Our Spirit, her work has also been published in several literary journals. She is currently writing a fantasy novel titled Marcie of the Stars. http://cynthiaspoetrycorner.blogspot.ca/

“The novel is not only good but is an extremely useful literature project for building knowledge and the story of place into a literary language.”—George McWhirter, poet, professor emeritus, and former head of the Dept. of Creative Writing, University of British Columbia, and editor of the imaged poetry anthology A Verse Map of Vancouver.
