The Cellar Dreamer by Valerie Coulton

Excerpts | Order

Whether remembering her childhood, unraveling a narrative, or mapping new surroundings, Valerie Coulton strikes the same exquisite balance between lush sound and precise language. Compassion is her theme in these three new texts, and each shows a different kind. It's a book that brings the heart out into the open and makes it shine.
