Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Miniature celebrations of place, the writings in Nowhere Else But Here (ital) deftly maneuver through imagined spaces and bustling Manhattan streets, the impossible page and the architecture of Japanese homes. Here, place is questioned and subdued: it is the hot gloss of sun on concrete. -Lily Hoang, Author of Unfinished The writing in Not Somewhere Else But Here is at turns haunting and infused with a deep magic.
