Summary:
"After excerpting vignettes from my journal, editing them until I liked the way time and space were woven, then cracking apart the narratives, splicing in words and phrases from research about the oil spill, water pollution, shortages and the effects on animals--after all this, I excerpted words in the shape of a W from each piece and then wove them into the next one."--Barbara Henning, final page.
