I am not going to tell you what it is about. ![]() ![]() “I've read it three times so far and I unlock something new with each reading.” “Fragments of love, grief, imagination and dream come together in a quick read that made me want to reread and analyze it.” ![]() A beautiful book that will speak to your soul and help it heal.” This seemingly unconnected collection of short vignettes is, instead, a melancholy mediation on loss, a path through grief, a paean to love. “Another masterpiece from Brian Selznick. What I love most about this series of short vignettes is the emotional intimacy and an overall sense of comfort.” “It’s such a treat to see a new book from Brian Selznick. “A brilliant example of the power of words and pictures, of storytelling itself.” ★ “Selznick examines the unique realities surrounding love and death.Each is introduced by an exquisite, graphite illustration that is preceded by a symmetrical, kaleidoscopic version of the scene.While Selznick trusts readers to draw their own conclusions about what is true, he offers rich companionship on the voyage.” Yet with all the adventures that unfold, the emotions underlying the tales are what elevate them.” ★ “Selznick has built dazzling worlds into which readers can momentarily drop. readers of any age who love literature will find questions that demand engagement, images that refuse to fade from the mind." ![]()
