Blueberry Fool

“Thom Rock has crafted an enchanting meditation on some of life's urgent questions: What is memory, really? How does belief work in a world full of inevitable loss? When we seek meaning, do we need to look further than a patch of wild blueberries in summer? The language is vivid and beautifully cadenced; the stories tenderly told. Blueberry Fool consoles the distracted mind and opens it to a wondrous natural world, where asking is enough.”
