Things That Are Glacial, Things That Are Gone

AVAILABLE IN THE COLLECTION SHAKE AWAY THESE CONSTANT DAYS, AVAILABLE NOW THROUGH JERSEY DEVIL PRESS.

**********



Samuel Barber was a composer. Now he's dead.

Stephanie Momot is a writer from Platteville, WI. I remember when she was 13 and got into an argument with me (I was 24) about how she read Little Women when she was 12 and thought it sucked. I thought she was a bit of a snot, but she turned out to be an all right kid and a hell of a dedicated reader/writer.
