Synopsis
A young Indian boy waits with his grandfather for death, and the spirit that will claim him. A dragon teaches a suicidal woman how to find rare, elusive magic. A mute stranger visits an orphaned boy and his grandmother, leaving a wake of wreckage. Ol Scratch himself hires a builder to construct a schooner. And a bamboo fly rod is all that stands between life and what may wait beyond it. In these unique tales, ordinary people move through extraordinary circles. Circles of life. Circles of death. At the very least, circles of change, and the chasing of thunderbirds.
