'"This little book" is how Mia Burrus, poet and multimedia artist, describes her memoir of her father Étienne Burrus, his life and passions. It may be little, but it is extraordinarily rich in its mixture of forms; poetry, pictures, photographs, letters, documents and recollections from a variety of voices including the author's. These fascinating vignettes take the reader on a "voyage of discovery" that draws a picture of Étienne and the ranch in the semi-arid Palliser triangle that absorbed his energies for half his life. It also follows his daughter's search for the man behind "Mr. B", a character "well-known to others but a mystery" to her.'
