Loop

A NAME, MANY NAMES I knew you long before I saw you, one thing inside another making itself up. Lightly, snow fell, kept falling the night you were born like those prayers tied to branches by the Japanese scissored bits of paper, each one a word: a name, many names, loose in the dark. Later you'll need a name that's door and window, roof and bed. You'll need a name to foil the thief that comes to live in your heart. But now you need a name so diaphanous and small it takes its shape from air.Simpson, Anne is the author of 'Loop' with ISBN 9780771080753 and ISBN 0771080751.
