ONE DAY IN THE SECRET FOREST OF WORDS 
Vicente Valero
Translated by Richard Sturgess

“This writing offers an animism that refuses animism, a humanism that refuses humanism, a spirituality that rejects the self-preening moral high ground — but also an astonishment that refuses any limitations on the realm of astonishment.” Leonard Schwartz, author of IF (Talisman House)
