Synopsis

Reactions to Alan Twigg's first book of interviews with Canadian authors, For Openers:

For Openers is much the best thing of its kind I've ever read, and much more difficult to achieve than the casual reader would guess.
-Hugh MacLennan

One can appreciate the zest, the engaging lack of stuffiness, with which Twigg confronts his authors.
-Ken Adachi, Toronto Star

For Openers is probably the best popular introduction to Canadian Literature that one could own.
-Charles Campbell, The Ubyssey
