Sample Book Insights:

#1 I love the beauty of scorpions. They look like black-ink hieroglyphs. I’m fascinated by how they can navigate by the stars, though I don’t know how they ever glimpse constellations from their usual homes in dusty corners of vacant houses.

#2 I have bought cleaning supplies, a new stove and fridge. With sawhorses and two planks, I set up a kitchen counter. I have not had a necklace of dirt since I played Kick the Can as a child.

#3 The house was cleaned, and the tile floors were waxy and shiny. We hung a few hooks on the backs of doors, just to get our clothes out of suitcases. We felt prepared to face the reality of restoration.

#4 The house is designed like a dollhouse, with one room deep with all the rooms about the same size. The west end of the house is walled off for the contadini, the farm family who worked the olive and grape terraces.
