"We never quite know what is on the other side of life. When Gordon Drummond opens an old suitcase after his father's funeral, he becomes an archaeologist of sorts, sifting through his own pre-history. Suspecting his father may have led a double life, Gordon, a homebody who takes comfort in the familiar, decides to take the trip of a lifetime.
Brilliantly paced, Passport to Perdita takes us from the cool grey of Nova Scotia to the verdant green of the Chilean coast. It begins with grief and moves inexorably toward wonder. With witty, crackling dialogue and insight to spare, Borgersen has penned a tantalizing tale that is a journey very much worth taking."
Adam Gibbs, author of Dumb Luck and Existentialism at the Wheel
"Passport to Perdita is a story about Gordon, a man who unearths a big family secret, which turns his life upside down. Not only must he leave the town he has always lived in to embark on a long physical journey, he will have to delve deep and question everything he has always known and believed in. But will he find what he's looking for? And will that change how he views his comfortable existence? Through Borgersen's gentle prose we are swept away, both literally and emotionally, with Gordon as he embarks on his biggest adventure to date. The heart of this novella is big and beating as Gordon makes new connections and strengthens old ones. A thoroughly enjoyable read."
Laura Besley, author of The Almost Mothers and 100neHundred
