Golmah usually lives in a far-off realm halfway between fantasy and reality, where bad things happen but always resolve to her satisfaction. It's a world of her own making, and she likes it just fine. The rest of the time she spends firmly grounded in American soil, cajoling her way with admissions essays into studying history at UCLA and dentistry at Harvard. But even when she should have been studying, she squirreled away time to write this very book. Because the yarn she most loves to spin for fabric are total fabrications-stories full of people and places that manage to entrance away our pain, poetry that communicates a lot with very little, and epic romances that stand up to the nastiest villains.
