What do you give a shrink who reads? Speculative fiction as prophesy, but with a capacity to break your heart. This goes on the list of books I wish I had read twice: today and tomorrow. “Are there really people without resentment, without hate, she wondered. People who never go cross-grained to the universe? Who recognize evil, and resist evil, and yet are utterly unaffected by it? Of course there are. Countless, the living and the dead. Those who have returned in pure compassion to the wheel..” …. And: creepy resonance. I was AI-encouraged to create a new cover for the book. I took the prompt, then took it back.
