James Wood’s enjoyment and excitement about reading is pretty infections. In tight little chapters, he makes one gratifying point after another. This book is not instructional; it is rather an unabashed celebration of the craft and surprise behind this huge thing called fiction. James Wood pulls this off, I think, because he himself is such a talented writer. It is one thing to learn about why and how something works, and quite another to learn it as though one is treated to a bunch of delicious secrets.

When three-year-old Maya cultivates a friendship with Dodo, a disruptive imaginary buddy, Edelman and her husband worry about how to handle Dodo's apparent hold over her. In an unlikely choice they take her to healers in Belize, hoping the shaman might help banish Dodo and all that he represents. This deeply emotional memoir is the account of their magical week in Central America, where this mainstream mother found herself making unorthodox choices and learning about the things that possess, destroy, and heal us all.
