#life and death

  • Devastating

    We say hope is the last thing to abandon us, but if hope often concerns physical survival — its deeper function is narrative.

  • Sinking Feeling

    Winter is coming.

  • Good Grief

    I never thought I’d find myself in a march again.

  • Radio Silence

    It’s a strange thing, listening to silence. Strange and uncomfortable. And then, little by little, as I learn to live with the aural void, also increasingly comforting.

  • Sweet Nothing : The Gospel According to Frank Bascombe

    Richard Ford wraps up the Bascombe saga and leaves the reader with a sense of miracle.

  • Death and Entropy

    I like the feeling of creating pockets in time and space where entropy is decreased, at least temporarily.
