in my family, we write notes, texts, emails, letters, diaries, articles, columns. My childhood was punctuated by long spells away from home, and the pining for it was both...
story I'm about to tell could be judged preposterous. Fine. Judge how you must. Protect yourself by scare-quoting me as the so-called psychic, the so-called victim of a psychic attack. Quarantine this account however you must so that you can safely hear it. What happened to me could never happen...

Dear Morrissey,
I'm feeling dead depressed and down. Like a streetlamp without a bulb or a goose at the onset of Christmas time. Anyroad, I thought I'd pen a few lines to someone who'd understand. I know you probably won't answer this; I don't know if...

Author's Note
THIS NOVEL is the first of a projected cycle about the members of an American family moving into and through the explosive events of the twentieth century.
It's impossible to understand this century without some knowledge of the last one. This story therefore attempts to present a...

"I
do dream," he said one night.
We had been talking about that word-
-the word
"dream"—and how often people seemed to use it when referring to him. The word came up so frequently in conversations when strangers were discussing him, it was almost as if the usage was involuntary. People...

INTRODUCTION
I flunked nude figure drawing in college, and that was the most liberating moment in my education. Up to my junior year at the University of Michigan, I am forced to admit that I had always tried to get As, that I had accepted the basic agenda of academia.

EDITOR'S NOTE A lively discussion, with its laughter, raised eyebrows, significant silences, and voices speaking at once, is almost impossible to capture on paper. But there are reasons for trying. One reason is to encourage thoughtful reflection about the originál conversations. These...

WHAT it begins with, I know finally, is the kernel of meanness in people's hearts. I don't know exactly how or why it gets inside us; that's one of the mysteries I haven't solved yet. I always tried to close my eyes and believe that angels, invisible in their gossamer dresses, were keeping...

Introduction
OVER SIX DECADES AGO when I was a student, the initial reaction of myself and my Jewish peers to Adolph Hitler was to make jokes about a funny little man, a lunatic with a mustache. No one was prepared to take his bombastic threats seriously— until it was too late.

NOTE
As this is a poem, not a history, it has seemed unnecessary to me to encumber it with notes, bibliography, and other historical apparatus. Nevertheless— besides such original sources as the Official Records, the series of articles in Battles and Leaders of the Civil War, and the letters,...
