Through motifs of mothering, distance and intimacy, geography and labyrinths, art and writing, nuns and priests, the moon, and sexuality, Quibbling recreates the experience of writing, of assembling a story from fragments of the experience, connecting this empowering process of assembly with the process by which we assemble ourselves and our lives. What at first may seem purposely fragmented is actually as continuous and cohesive as any given time period in a person's life.(Source: Eastgate catalog description)
