Bones of Air. Bones of Stone by Stephen Lay. Read for You, by Gethin Anthony. Take a small rock, toss it into a rotating cylinder and pouring abrasives tumble the mess for several days while the grit gnaws at the hard edges and scrubs the rounding surfaces. What eventually emerges from the harsh chrysalis of the tumbler is rock subdued and transformed, shimmering and polished like molten glass. All the hidden colours and veins revealed. Somewhere in my early teens, my parents gave me a rock polishing kit. I went pretty quickly through the provided assortment of pebbles, pleased with what came from my growling slow cylinder but bored with the tedious long hours needed for the result.
