Description
xThe Definitive Edition
Revised and corrected by the author "What William Burroughs's novel Junky is to drug addiction, Raymond Fraser's Rum River is to alcoholism." EUGENE PETERS, Essayist & critic "A raw, at times almost abrasive, emotional honesty is a signature Fraser leaves in all his writing, but never does it come through more clearly than in Rum River. The book is as strong as anything ever written by American writer and kindred spirit Charles Bukowski." STEPHEN PATRICK CLARE, Atlantic Canada's 100 Greatest Books "As with all Raymond Fraser's books almost impossible to put down." BRIAN JEFFREY STREET, author, The Parachute Ward "It's perceptive, magnetic and laced with humour." ANNE INGRAM, The Gleaner "Comic and horrifying." HEATHER SANDERSON, Canadian Literature "A wonderful enthralling read - intensely personal yet universally relevant. Necessary pain and the heart of a poet is required to write prose like this. It's the first time I read a book straight through in a long time." BERNELL MACDONALD, author, Birds Of Passage "Rum River was my Catcher in the Rye." Eric Myers, bibliophile
