No Town Called We in the Winnipeg Free Press
Melanie Brannagan Frederiksen reviewed No Town Called We by Nikki Reimer alongside Siteseeing by Ariel Gordon and Brenda Schmidt and Vixen by Sandra Ridley in the Winnipeg Free Press.
From the article:
“Throughout the collection, the (sick) body and the (sick) city refract one another, a theme Reimer confronts with urgency by writing into the political vector of caring: ‘we have tried and failed one million times to think myself back to health. it is false that no one loves me and it is true that no one loves we. there is not community inside the dream.’”
