"I can't speak about What Shapes These Clouds without speaking first about what shapes the sentences that have gone into the making of this book made from the sky, this book made from water, this book made from mud and fish and birds, all the words-real nouns-that I love.

This is a book of being reborn and returning as something else, something better, something bigger than what even the sky can contain. 'I've taken on new shapes in your absence.' Let's end this blurb with this: 'What's written on these leaves'-and on the pages of this book-'are words of a language I have never seen.' This is a book to drink in. This is a book to baptize yourself in a new way of saying what it means to be alive." Peter Markus, author of When Our Fathers Return to Us as Birds
