brief_description
"The man's jaw has dropped further; the mouth is open wide. I see more clearly the kingfisher on his head, its wonderful blue, the long beak coming neatly to a sharp point. It is in repose on his head, almost as if growing there. A thought: we must all be careful, time is pulling us roughly along, and we have no idea where it's headed."--Book jacket.
