"Amdahl is one whose gifts are staggering and hard won. The stories relate, by the way of guts through grace, the wholeness of a novel too good for philosophy.

"Ken took a book published by a big publisher, carved out a space for himself, and filled it with his words. It was a book safe that saved words, that kept them safe. The children of his mind." -From the preface by Derek McCormack
