without love no quirks, writes Norman Fischer in the midst of any would be if. One might add: without quirks, no life, as in this book Fischer proceeds by ellipsis, and suggests that living, noticing, even drinking tea, manifests in similar fashion. Indeed, the teacup told us how to hold it, provides one of many delightful and slightly puzzling, or perhaps uncanny, moments in a book full of moments. Moments of thought, moments of action, moments of light, moments of language, moments through which we pull ourselves into now. If one wants a book to show the world, not in its grandeur (or, maybe that, too) but in its process, in the betweenness we all inhabit, then this is the book one wants. I know I am glad to have it, and to return to it, often, to be. Charles Alexander
