Pass Me By: Gone Fishin‪'‬

BPAA Best Illustrated Book Of The Year Award Winner



A touching and tender graphic novel following Ed, a reserved man dealing with dementia in a small, northern-Canadian town. As Ed’s memory declines he loses touch with the present and revisits a past he chose to forget. As he loses more of his present, he finds himself lost more in the 1970s when he toured rural Canada in a glam rock band. A queer, romantic-tragedy.



“An inverted coming of age story about understanding queer identity and what happens to the stories you never tell.”



– Stephanie Chan, Smash Pages



“The publisher calls it “a queer, rural, Canadian, romantic tragedy.” I call it delightful. It’s gorgeous, clever and perfectly paced, with fully formed characters from the first panel.”



– Mike Donachie, Toronto Star
