Henri Cole's marvellous second collection is a book of changes—deaths, love, travel, delirium; how memories shift, how the heart opens and closes.  But nothing seems familiar; because he brings to the ordinary events in our lives a point of view as shrewd and tender as a child's, as spellbound and searching as the dreamer's.                                —J.D. McClatchy
