Read an excerpt

Once upon a time, there was a silky boy… He would wrap himself up, unwrap himself, laugh, be afraid, stretch out, curl up, and change color. His mother, his silkworm mother, would say to him… My silky and soft one, you are not like the others. Beware of the rain, the tears, the thistles, the spiders, the first frosts, the sun, the fire, the stove, the thumbtacks, the pins, the nails, the roses, the kisses, too much dew, the icy clear nights. But more than anything, above all, my silky and soft one, my little silk and my little soft one, my child and my precious one, my one and only silk, beware of people. They have hands that pull, hurt, stick, and grab, tear apart, rip and fray, torment, beat and unravel, sweat, freeze, stretch and choke, cut into pieces. Don’t let them catch you and tear you into forty-two pieces and twelve.
