Review of 'Light can be both wave and particle' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

This book of short stories continues the adventures of Nora Jane (pregnant with twins by two different men!), Traceleen, Rhoda, and others.

My favorite lines, from the title story:

If I enter into this moment, I will be changed forever. If I refuse this moment then I will go about the world as an old man goes, with no hope, no songs to sing, no longing or desire, no miracles of sunlight. So I will allow this to happen to me. As if a man can refuse his destiny. As if the choice were mine. Let it come to me.
