Shortlisted, Archibald Lampman AwardIn this lush collection of
linguistic concatenations, Peter Richardson lines up the quotidian
and the metaphysical, the personal and the fictional, and assigns
equal standing to their rich complications. Whether his cast
members take the ironic stance of an apostate jazz pianist or the
hardball approach of a recovering stand-up comic, they invite us on
an exuberant exploration of self that rewards multiple readings.
Ranging from a literate vernacular to high diction, the language of
Bit Parts for Fools hints at a new hunger driving the poet's quirky
observations and confirms once again that Richardson is a fine
craftsman -- all confidence and mischief, "whistling from scuffmark
to scuffmark."
