“The writing style . . . is beautifully lyrical. In some places, the writing is stop-in-tracks insightful. . . . As ever, there is some truly beautiful writing in the ACCIDENTAL EDUCATOR, of genuine depth and insight. . . . Moreover, for a memoir in this form, there is great poignancy and tenderness to the writing in moments.”Jon Curzon, Editor The WRITING Consultancy, Cambridge, UK, 2023“Answers are difficult to find. Sometimes they are masked by presentation, but are well worth exploration. Time spent inside THE ACCIDENTAL EDUCATOR: Life-Defining Stories of Rites and Wrongs, will be time well spent. The logic and conclusions of Eric Reno’s life-work is an example of a summary of a personal search for answers. Whether you agree or not, the intentions and conclusions of Eric’s effort are well worth a quiet read. In a time when carefully crafted images and selected words push us to conclusions for the sole benefit of their presenter, considering the ideas and events offered in this candid work deserve a visit. Best wishes to all, and to Eric for providing individual conclusions that are likely to resonate for many from the journey of a mind intent on pursuing meaningful answers.”Marc Paul Chinoy, founder of The Regis Group, Inc. '. . . .This book is more than a memoir, The Accidental Educator is a masterclass in resilience and redemption. . . ."Barbara Bamberger Scott, Pacific Book Review. 26 June 2025
