This strange blending of prose and poetry is a collection of enigmatic love letters-to an elusive object of affection-that first appeared in the classified ads of two Toronto newspapers.

Exquisitely rendered paintings combine with lushly written missives to offer a tantalizing peek into the intimate intricacies of a deeply felt love from a lauded musician whose lyrics have been praised as exotic, daring, vulnerable, brilliant, and weird.
