Hush
“When friends come over, I tell them the house shakes because it’s on a fault line. I don’t tell them the house is upset. I don’t tell them the trees tap the windows at night and the wind only blows at dinner time and the floor tilts upstairs, so Sis and I have to lean against the wall to get to our rooms. I don’t tell them Mom and Dad walk with their hands out like acrobats to get to their room.”
What We’re Reading Now: The Effulgent Jean Giono
“As I sat drenching myself in Giono’s world, it was as if I knew I had a soul.”
If You’re Lucky, This Could Be You
“Her life is not a goddamn movie. How’s this for plot? Fires erupt when people aren’t paying attention.”
Nothing Without Intention: on Writing with Solange’s “When I Get Home”
“Refrains like ‘we were down with you, down with you, down with you’ extend beyond the bounds of normal chorus and invite a particular mode of listening that engages the logic of mantras—sound as vibrational soothing.”
