Great Beginnings

By KEVIN BROCKMEIER
Published July 27, 2003

Here is Celia, running like a rabbit through the sunlight, on a day so perfectly pitched between winter and spring that she can feel streamers of warm air in the wind.

- Opening line from The Truth About Celia by Kevin Brockmeier (Pantheon Books, $22, 240 pp)
