INDIGO ANGEL – (All three volumes, Mood Indigo, Brilliant Corners, Air Time)
Indio Angel is a book of many: many voices, many points of departure, many ways of living and communing—all elemental and belonging to the complex, wondrous disaster that is human history, but also all in search of new forms, new contexts, new impulses for being subjects in time, new ways of understanding time. In this three-part meditation on what feels like everything, Jeanne Heuving builds intricate, playful, and deftly articulated passages, corners, moods for our unraveling. An immense reading experience.
