— Madelaine Lucas, Thirst for Salt (Tin House Books, March 7, 2023)

I had a sense of preparation for a love to come. Like the extension of canopies, the unrolling of ceremonial carpets, as if I must first create a marvelous world in which to house it, in which to receive adequately this guest of honor.
