    Summary

    I knew in my heart that if I slept, my body would take me back to the Crucible like a salmon beating upstream. It is that inevitable, my origin and destination.

    When strange sounds are heard at the Crucible, Maria confides her investigation-- sparingly-- in the architect of its Focus, beginning a multidirectional exchange of letters between the visionaries and their perennial co-conspirators. But as unusual phenomena accelerate, the secrets of the Kains: the language of houses and dreams, experimental interactions with the fabric of time, the theory and practice of Memory, and the esoteric science of vitality and the soul-- as well as Maria's own secretiveness-- may threaten the future of their House, and even the afterlife of Wild Nina.

    Summary

    Water is like blood. It flows within the earth and escapes through her wounds, spilling in rivers. The essence of life, the thread that binds an udurgh; it all ends in the ocean. Artemy has seen the ocean once, which is more than nearly everyone who lives in the Town-on-Gorkhon. The waves were black and freezing and roared like his pulse in his ears, and he fell asleep in the sand. Murky dreams of the ocean, at night in the Silent House.
    The Tower has fallen. The Town suffers a sea-change. Artemy wonders what it all means; Sticky wonders what comes next; Murky wonders what she’ll become. Closure is never complete, and it is a harsh winter.

    Summary

    In essence, the entire Bible is written as an affirmative response to this question.” — Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, Jewish Literacy

    Summary

    "I love you," Harry says on June 25, 51, halfway through a game of cribbage. Cuno has done nothing more notable than tell a joke that made Harry laugh.

    Cuno doesn't know what to say. Nobody loves Cuno. Loving Cuno should probably be an interisolary crime. "Gross," he says.

    An exploration of those Cuno has lost, those he's gained, and those he can't let go.
