"Hutchinson uses his experimental style to render in print his protagonists experiences, detailing his hallucinations, blackouts, and ability to slip in time and from place to place." — Canadian Literature
"Imagine a twenty-first-century Frankenstein built from the corpses of John Berryman and Elizabeth Smart and jolted alive by an electricity that is uniquely Chris Hutchinson. Now imagine this as a creature endowed with smart paranoia and queasy wit, who short-order-cooks, pill-pops, cubicle-hops, and jump-cuts its way through parallel realities and past lives, other selves in other times — gradually facing ‘the impossibility of our research ever coming to an end’ — and you've got the marvellous monster named Jonas in Frames." — Alayna Munce
"If we are to take contemporary writing at its word, then Chris Hutchinson is among its foremost practitioners, forsaking the certainties of space, time, and locus for that collective unconscious known as the Internet. This is fleet-of-foot, informed writing — that draws on a broad cultural reference range, a dual diagnosis of mental illness and drugs collaged from a million little pieces. Like his book's titular character, Hutchinson is a writer who had ‘lived with himself long enough to know that he is somehow different, and that there is no escaping.’ " — Michael Turner
