"I highly recommend Stephen Smith's Puckstruck, a very funny and profound meditation on all things hockey"--Keith Gessen "With a love of words as deep and impassioned as his love of hockey, Smith delivers a maddening opus for the ages."--Publishers Weekly "Puckstruck is irreverent, eclectic, irascible, witty, smart, and highly informed. It should be required reading for every 'hockey insider' analyst and bar-stool GM in ice country."--Roy MacGregor "This is a book after my heart: hockey and literature waltzing together to the music of the author's careful, artful prose. Funny, wistful, smart and unlike any hockey book I've read (although I clearly haven't read as many as Mr. Smith)."--Dave Bidini, author of Tropic of Hockey "Puckstruck is like nothing I've read before--fresh, funny, dazzling and brilliant. Can a hockey book ever really be described as Joycean? This one can." --Charles Foran "Hockey wasn't invented but discovered. The game, and the large organizing idea behind Stephen Smith's deeply personal Puckstruck, sleeps in ponds and in the crooked limbs of trees overhead; we merely pluck a stick from the sky and skate over the frozen world to find ourselves and each other. It's rare to find a book that makes me proud to be Canadian: A funny, myth-busting, life-loving read."--Michael Winter
