Translation of page “A” from The Alphabet of Angels.
NO SUN WHERE A SUN WOULD RISE. No edge where a horizon would be. No soft pathway to crunch under the weight of footsteps. No earthen trail or hand-hewn cobblestones or muddy street or grassy field or scorched desert sand. Instead, the ground is an infinite field of fresh white, porcelain light. At once, soft and crisp.
Above, the sky turns in a slow swirl of color. Browns and blues and reds, greens and yellows. Every color in between, seen and unseen.
Romano take his seat and opens the soft leather cover of the book sitting between us on the table. He brushes his beard to one side, turns to the first page and peels away a thin, red cube of color. ‘Now and forever,’ he says. ‘Past and future, life and death, heat and cold, sorrow and joy. Absent of metaphor. No longer an is or a was or a will be.’
He dangles the color between his fingertips, lets the breeze lift it into the air and turns to the next page.
