"The listless, monolithic hulk of Lake Ontario looms large in this stellar collection of interconnected poems by Tanis Rideout... By plunging into the aquatic depths of [Marilyn Bell and Shirley Campbell's] fictionalized emotional lives, Rideout pulls off a poetic rendering of two historical figures that is as consuming as it is invigorating." - Free Range Reading
"The poems also examine the darker forces of friendship, of womanhood, of what inevitably follows girldom, stardom. The lake itself is Rideout's main character though throughout the book, speaking back to each of the girls' arguments, enduring but ever-changing... I loved this book." - Pickle Me This
"There are risks in writing about real people and real events?that delicate balance between a commitment to the recorded past and the freedom to reinterpret important moments to suit art. Tanis Rideout once again proves adept at navigating these shifting currents." - Arc
