Ro & Lei: A Book of Evenings (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798182488570)

At the edge of a quiet village, beside an old stone bridge over a slow river, there grows a cherry blossom tree so tall its highest branch reaches into open sky.

Two birds meet there every evening.

This is what they said to each other.

Ro & Lei is a book of twelve conversations - one for each month of a single year - between two birds who found each other at the top of the world and chose, every evening, to return. Together they speak about love and what it actually is beneath all the beautiful words for it. About grief and the rooms we keep for the ones who are gone. About the lives we did not live and whether that loss is bearable. About dreams too private to have ever been said aloud. About change, and secrets, and the particular terror of something ending. About death, held as honestly as two small frightened creatures can hold it. And about the specific, devastating, irreplaceable love of one particular someone - and what it means to love them knowing the forever of things.

It is a quiet book.

It asks to be read slowly.

It will stay with you the way certain evenings stay - long after the light has gone, long after you have gone home, present in the chest in that particular place where the true things live.

"Some places hold a kind of promise
we feel long before we can name.
We return not because reason brings us -
but because something quieter than reason
has always known the way home."
