Enriched by his own world travels, Cassells draws with equal ease from Greek mythology, children's rhymes, and African-American oral traditions. The result is an hypnotic and rhapsodic interweaving of dramatic narratives forming a single whole. Cassells's writing strikes a balance between exquisite language and an empathy for anyone who is forced to suffer.--Publishers Weekly
