An honest book, finely written . . . Her narrative--from the obsessive pursuit of kites to a cry against human destruction of other forms of life--is a deeply personal journey. It is also the author's attempt to 'dive for spirit, the invisible river of being that connects us all at one time, all the time.' -- Audubon

In a lovely series of essays, Cerulean explores the hunger for intimacy, the unnameable longing, that can cause the connection with nature that she found with the kite but can also cause the destruction of the very thing one desires. . . . This lyrical book belongs in all libraries where readers demand environmental writing.</p>--<i>Booklist</i>
