“In this volume of essays and miscellany, we are treated to some of Sidney-Fryer’s most recent thoughts on a wide array of subjects. Whether it be the life and work of Clark Ashton Smith, Robert E. Howard, and Lin Carter, or the poetry of the such contemporary versifiers as G. Sutton Breiding and Frank Coffman, Sidney-Fryer always offers penetrating insight. And he writes charmingly about some of the engaging events of his own long and eventful life.
In the section ‘Random Lines: Poems in Verse and Prose,’ Sidney-Fryer indites lyrics of impeccable beauty and metrical precision. And we are treated to a sheaf of poems written during his adolescence—poems that supply abundant hints of the towering literary figure he would later become.” #68358
