Praise for All Things Said & Done
“All Things Said & Done deals pungently with anecdotal fragments, often about the BC interior where [Marita Dachsel] grew up ... [a] promising debut.”
—Maurice Mireau, Winnipeg Free Press
“The freestyle verse transforms the author’s fragmented recollections into one well-crafted tale. It’s perfect for readers who revel in poetic style but enjoy a novel’s narrative thread. Sincere, ironic and witty.”
—The Tyee
"[All things Said & Done] is a highly accomplished first book."
