survives. Tim Bowling, quite simply, writes."
*Alberta Views*
"There's enough humour and narrative action to keep the storyline
compelling even as it meanders through thoughtful interludes....
The Heavy Bear is an inventive, introspective and thoroughly
rewarding novel."
*Lindy Reads and Reviews*
"Bowling (The Tinsmith) takes readers on a zany Joycean journey
through the streets of Edmonton."
*Publishers Weekly*
"Bowling’s command of language is effortlessly beautiful; part of
the brilliance of the novel is in the way it prompts you to
consider your own engagement as a reader."
*Quill & Quire*
"Beautifully written, this is a book for readers, and for those
looking for reassurance that middle-age doesn’t mark the end of
personal creativity."
