  96. ABOUT THE AUTHOR
  97. CONTENTS

To the librarians, booksellers, and teachers around the world: What a couple of years. I’m so sorry for all you’ve had to weather. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the important work you do.

And, of course, to my readers. What a burden you all have carried throughout this pandemic. I mourn with you, I am grateful for you, and I hope to see many of your faces in person soon. As goes the poem Talin remembers from her childhood: Just because the sun cannot be seen, that does not mean it isn’t there. I hope we will reach the times of sun.

May there always be future dawns.
