A ferocious and tender collection of stories that feels necessary, timely, and true. Passionate, raw and sharply honed, these stories span the range from brief fables that unfold like flowers to torrents of inquiry so passionately searching you will be left breathless. —Amy Parker, author of BEASTS &amp; CHILDREN Here is a collection in which every person, animal, tree, spoon, and stone is capable of burning with love and grief, losing itself in transports of joy and wonder, succumbing to illness, quaking with desire, and breaking and being broken by every other. Rutschman brings a wonderful grace and suggestiveness to both the longest and the shortest of his stories, and as a result he has made a book that deserves not only to be read but reread, most particularly "The Baby," which is a profound work of empathetic imagination, and a masterpiece. —Kevin Brockmeier, author of THE ILLUMINATION David Rutschman’s INTO TERRIBLE LIGHT has brought a whispering, uncontainable fire into our world. —Kevin McIlvoy, author of 57 OCTAVES BELOW MIDDLE C
