A flow of pieces that carry story and emotion via reflections on an immigrant family history, metaphysical musings, and earthly perplexities—with occasional outbursts of ecstatic appreciation of nature. The unsegmented order of pieces is intended to create a loose narrative “swirl” that ushers the reader through layers of reflection and memory into a moving experience of language, discovery, and insight.
