Part mystery, part eulogy, McElmurray’s lyrical style transformed me from skeptical to fully invested in Miracelle Loving’s search for identity, meaning, and love."—The Rumpus "Gorgeous language: words perfectly chosen, rhythmically arranged. McElmurray piles image after radiant image, full of heat and light and smoky mystery."—Southern Literary Review
