FILE OF UNCERTAINTIES (poems)
Sono Nis Press, Vancouver, 1971.

“Intensely personal, File of Uncertainties is a beautifully controlled and sustained statement of human helplessness. Consequently it is also an uncomfortable, almost painful book. Nothing pretty or witty calls out for applause. If you like your poetry to be a spectator sport, don’t bother. You’ll get your mind bruised. “ 
Viveca Ohm, The Vancouver Sun.

“A rare poet of both the world and the mind. Strong, sharp, truthful. Lines like ‘But I am, I have found/corruptible’ hit with a sting of truth, a kind of revelational knife.”  Willis Barnstone, poet/anthologist.

“Schroeder is undoubtedly one of the few real poets around Vancouver today. What he read from File of Uncertainties was as cleanly precise and vivid as we have come to expect from him.”  Viveca Ohm, The Vancouver Sun.
