Stirring the Mirror

Once you begin reading the work of Christine Boyka Kluge you can't help but feel yourself staring out the window of your imagination as you did as a child in grade school except that this time the imagination you are seeing through her language is real. So real, in fact, that you wonder how her ability to shrink herself inside the functions of natural and inanimate things can be consistently possible but it is, over and over again until you realize you've entered not only a universe of rapture and delight but also a darker one whose mystery is a delightful yearning for the unknown.
