Kate's shadow hovers like a penumbra over these pages that unfold a kaleidoscope of her world. A small-town apartment full of \"paintings \u0026amp; burritos \u0026amp; pyramid-shaped empty bottles of Patron \u0026amp; an ad hoc anthology of vibrators.\" A banged-up Jeep, loose syringes underfoot, rattles under Colorado skies. Near an ICU bed, Pavli agonizes over the most difficult questions, while doctors \"swish off to the tune of their thin-soled leather loafers.\" And a diary, left behind, brims with revelations of vulnerability nearly as great as Pavli's own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut \u003ci\u003eCall It in the Air\u003c\/i\u003e records more than a relationship between brother and sister, more than a moment of personal loss. \"I sit while eleven bodies of mine fall all over the countless mysteries of who you are,\" he writes, while \"Somewhere along the way, heat blasting past us \u0026amp; out the open jeep, the mountain sky turned to black steel \u0026amp; swung open its empty mouth.\" In moments like these, Pavli recognizes something of his big sister everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRived by loss and ravaged by grief, \u003ci\u003eCall It in the Air\u003c\/i\u003e mingles the voices of brother and sister, one falling and one forgiven, to offer an intimate elegy that meditates on love itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47595902533868,"sku":"9781571315489","price":32.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781571315489-call-it-in-the-air.jpg?v=1777910675","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/call-it-in-the-air-by-ed-pavli-9781571315489","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
