11 April 2008
Knowing I had to give a reading in Devil’s Den but overwhelmed by the task of selecting my own work before I left town, I decided to read excerpts from Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck, the ideal book for reading around a campfire, which I did often in the year that Robb and I traveled around the United States like bums. Read it aloud to anyone who would listen. So in the days before departing, I began reading exerpts aloud again, and all who listened enjoyed, as all who read should. A great American journey story — and, no two being alike, just as Steinbeck writes, none quite a new invention either. He captures the spirit of the people he meets so well, and every time I read this book I want so badly to crawl into the back of his truck with him and sit down for a cup of coffee and twenty or thirty minutes of conversation. This book is the closest any of us will ever get.
I ended up reading my own poetry at the reading, along with three poems by Bishop, Carruth, and Mueller, but have happily returned to Travels with Charley to finish reading it again. Perhaps I have read it fifteen times. Last night, I flipped randomly to a passage and found myself laughing out loud, particularly at the “highway sign” part, a passage closely related to something I wrote just weeks ago in the short story I’m working on, although certainly Mr. Steinbeck wrote it better and smarter:
… It isn’t hunger that drives millions of armed American males to forests and hills every autumn, as the incidence of of heart failure among the hunters will prove. Somehow the hunting process has to do with masculinity, but I don’t quite know how. I know there are any number of good and efficient hunters who know what they are doing; but many more are overweight gentlemen, primed with whiskey and armed with high-powered rifles. They shoot at anything that moves or looks as though it might, and their success in killing one another may well prevent a population explosion. If the casualties were limited to their own kind there would be no problem, but the slaughter of cows, pigs, farmers, dogs, and highway signs makes autumn a dangerous season in which to travel.

Tomorrow morning I’ll have bloodwork done for a bone marrow donation I’m doing next week. This seemed a reasonable thing to do when I first agreed to it about six months ago. Now that the date is closer, I’m nervous. I’ve been relatively assured that the procedure isn’t as painful as it used to be, which isn’t much consolation since I have no previous experience.
What I’m reading, recommended by Gitterman, et al: Another Bullshit Night in Suck City by Nick Flynn. A thoughtful look at homelessness, drug addiction, alcoholism, and family patterns, told, thus far, in present tense as it skips back and forth from year to year, generation to generation. More thoughts on it to come, but do rush out and get it so we can read it together. A fine piece of writing.

31 July 2007
About two years ago, I emailed Kermit Moyer, a professor I had for a literature course at American University when I was a freshman in college in the early 1990s. He had given us, on our final day of class, a list for future reading. Over the years, I highlighted or checked off the books I’d read and scribbled marginalia such as library call numbers or the date I finished reading the book. Sometimes the list was pinned to a bulletin board over a desk, or just folded into a journal for a road trip. And by the time I finally lost the list, more than twelve years later, the paper was wrinkled and soft. Oh, that was a great reading list — not just the titles he suggested, but that very sheet of paper. So I emailed Kermit Moyer and asked for another copy. He had a couple of additional titles by then, and was happy to hear I’d kept the list. And I was happy when the new list arrived in my mailbox only days later.
A few advisors at Warren Wilson wrote impressive lists too, and since returning home from Asheville with no project plan for a semester ahead, I pulled out Debra’s reading list from last semester to see what I would read next (a weighty anthology of contemporary French poetry that I picked up this weekend at the library). And I’ve also begun my own list. Maybe I’ll add brief descriptions or notes on why each book is on my list, but at least you now have the titles.
One of my favorite stories to retell about a book on my list: My friend Randy once told me about how once he and his ex-wife had been walking or driving down a street – I prefer the idea of them walking slowly on the sidewalk and looking in the windows, although driving would make the story more dramatic. And his ex-wife saw a copy of Sophie’s Choice in a window display at a used bookstore. She actually got teary. And when he asked why, she said she couldn’t believe someone had parted with their copy of the book.

12 June 2007
Spent the past few days sick and yesterday was my first day back in action. And since this is the first time I’ve logged into my blog since then, I also have 4,502 “comments” to moderate. Primarily spam. And every once in a while, a message from Chris or Henry. Days like this one wonders if she should turn off the comments feature again.
News and successes:
1. The coffee house around the corner from my office has re-opened. This means that the business that has been the only open property in a four-block radius since the storm now has competition. Nothing like a coffee house to compete with the V.I.P. Massage Lounge. It occurred to me yesterday that in ten years our street will look very different. There are signs of promise but evidence of the difficulty of that too. It occurred to me that the evolution needs to be photographed. Or at least described. Henceforth, description.
2. In looking at historic records recently, I couldn’t figure out where the Jung Hotel was. This is why people and their stories are so important. The day after I discovered it was across the street from my office (in a building that has been gutted and boarded and abandoned since the storm), I walked into the office of a stranger for a different purpose. And luck would have it that she worked at the Jung Hotel as a young woman.
3. The cucumbers in the garden show promise. They have about 17 flowers. We check on the plants every morning and evening. It’s amazing how much changes in a cucumber plant’s life on a daily basis. I wonder: if we checked on the tomato plants this much, would they be doing as well?
Happy to read that Ross is also reading non-fiction. I didn’t understand my sudden apathy for poetry and The English Patient (which is so much like poetry), although once I sunk into a good essay (Mimi Schwartz’s “Off the Record” about her visit to Benheim, the village her Jewish family had to leave — “leave” is too gentle a word sometimes – with Rolf, her translator and a graduate student of Holocaust studies at the University of Mannheim, No. 3, 2006 issue of The Missouri Review), I remembered why I miss non-fiction so much and how it makes me think about poetry, or at least how real both forms are.
What do you make of a man who enters — “enters” is too gentle a word sometimes — his old girlfriend’s apartment and steals her Waterford crystal? Short story finally underway.

… that I was quite attached to.
Gone. So I’ll just pack in something else and say, hey, no big deal, just grunt about it a little and then regain the certainty that there are other Ecko bags out there waiting for me. Of all the things one can toss in the pile of Things One Has Lost, an Ecko bag (despite all sentimental value attached) is relatively minor.
Packing tonight, I am so thankful for my digital packing list. Now packing requires so little thought, which is good since I need to use that energy for the three (!?@?#?@!) annotations I need to write while on this trip. And tonight the selection process so I’m not toting extra books. Just what I need, plus my petition text to finish revising, and a book on the mental health hazards journalists facing covering war (with the expectation that if the above gets done on this trip — ha! — I’ll work on the review of this book on the way home — although that would mean I’d also have to read the book, which is barely a within a centimeter of plausible). Also, today I discovered that someone I wrote about — no, let’s see how to explain this one without fully explaining or getting too complicated:
I wrote a piece about conversations I’ve had with about four people about an experience I had in a particular place. No doubt I’ve had conversations with dozens of people about this place, but only four made it into the essay (I’ve never really been sure how I feel about this place, and instead of figuring that out I used the voices of those four people to work toward an observation I didn’t have to actually own myself, but today I actually figured out what I think too). This happened as the result of a discovery today that one of those four people also had a connection to this place that I was previously unaware of. This connection would have occurred, hmm, a couple decades ago. But I discovered this connection mere hours ago, despite starting the writing project, oh, almost a decade ago. This changes so much that I must run back to the essay and finish it soon. And on the off-chance that all my school work gets finished, I will forego the war book for this essay.
All this to do and I am just sitting here writing this! Okay, please check back for more news of R.W. and the Hotchicks in Atlanta!
