"John Gardiner's prose is concise and to the point. Redundancies, run-on sentences and embellishments that would bog narratives down have been assiduously avoided. That spareness creates a directness that stimulates listeners to explore the layers surrounding the text... His subjects resonate with the lives of anyone who's ever been caught in a snow storm, enjoyed a hockey game, had the pleasure of sitting down with a good book or simply thought about what transpired over a single day. Respect for the mastery authors such as Hemingway, Wolfe, Steinbeck and other literary giants had for presenting thoughts with impeccable clarity has an obvious influence over his style and it's entirely welcome."
- Brian Hay, Freelance Journalist, Sarnia, Ontario
"John Gardiner's style is reminiscent of Alice Munro, Margaret Laurence and Stephen Leacock among others... He takes the little things in life, that many overlook, and raises them up to a moment of exquisite beauty or pain. His prose is, at times laugh-out-loud funny and, at other times, deeply moving."
- Collett Tracey, English Professor, Carleton University
