“Wagamese writes with brutal clarity…. [and] finds alleviating
balance through magical legend and poetic swells of sensate
imagery.”
— The Globe and Mail
“[Ragged Company] has … melancholy tenderness and spiritual
yearning. Wagamese evokes each character’s consciousness and
history with compassion, deep understanding and a knowledge of
street life.”
