PUBLISHERS WEEKLY



Winner of the
2023 Pat Lowther Memorial Award



[T]he true power of the book lies not in any one genre or subject, but in the spaces between them - the spaces in which Sze unearths unexpected connections and meaning ... Sze's spare, unflinching lines draw our attention to the in-between moments of life, the concentric circles of becoming.
