"Carlota Caulfield has given us a work of great sensuality and rare
luminosity, suffused with an intelligence that is both playful and
meditative. Her pleasures and discoveries become ours, her tender, often
sly observations are crafted for inheritance. But it is Caulfield's
devotion to the daily sacred that helps inspire our own."--Cristina
Garcia
