“Just as to be sloppy in a cave is to risk falling or damaging ancient formations, to be sloppy on the page is to risk an insight’s evaporating in mid-sentence. For most writers, discoveries are elusive and more likely to stay that way unless meticulously chosen words and graceful phrasing converge in a sentence that might get closer to saying what’s more true.”

The Epilogues
The Epilogues – the stories that begin as the story of the human tenancy on Earth draws to a close – is a transcendently beautiful, compassionate, and wise reflection on the human condition. This is the book I have been waiting for all these bewildering years; the first book I have found that offers beauty to match the wonder of the vanishing world, comfort equal to our anguish, and wisdom worthy of the questions we face. The Epilogues comes as a gift of grace.
