Just look at the cover.
Light Boxes by Shane Jones
" This was a nice distraction for the day that it took to read it during my work breaks.

I found it in the cheapo bin of my local Borders bookstore and I only paid a dollar for it.

I'm glad that I did...

“I wanted to write you a story about magic. I wanted rabbits appearing from hats. I wanted balloons lifting you into the sky. It turned out to be nothing but sadness, war, heartbreak. You never saw it, but there’s a garden inside me.”
Shane Jones, Light Boxes

“They held me and told me everything would be fine, that sadness would rise from our bones and evaporate in sunlight the way morning fog burned off the river in summer. My mother rubbed the kites on my hands and arms and told me to think of my lungs as balloons.

I just want to feel safe, I said.”
Shane Jones, Light Boxes

“I’m so confused it almost feels calm.”
Shane Jones, Light Boxes

“The most serious charge which can be brought against New England is not Puritanism but February.
