description: "Impeccable, a treasure . . . Edwards's brilliance is evident in the way she constructs a story."<br /> -<i>Chicago Tribune</i> <br /><br /> "Stunning . . . [Edwards's] sinuous prose and endless empathy work their spell. . . . Radiant, original, and passionate, these are memorable stories."<br /> -Andrea Barrett, author of <i>Ship Fever</i> <br /><br /> "<i>The Secrets of a Fire King</i> gives eloquence to an astonishing range of discoveries and leaves the reader entranced."<br /> -<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <br /><br /> "Beautifully focused ... [Edwards's] tales read like the work of a wise traveler who returns home with uncommon souvenirs from other lands."<br /> -<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <br /><br /> "Striking ... powerful."<br /> -<i>The Boston Globe</i>
