		<description><![CDATA[A few things I&#8217;ve been reading as of late: Jim Harrison, True North (Grove Press, 2004). I&#8217;m a belated convert to Harrison&#8217;s fiction: I&#8217;ve known about him since a girlfriend in high school recommended him, but only started reading his work in the last few years. I inadvertently read Returning to Earth, the 2007 sequel [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am stunned to learn of the death of anime director Kon Satoshi. He was only 46; the cause of death was pancreatic cancer. Kon was for my money easily the best director in Japanese anime. Each of his remarkable films expanded the boundaries of what the medium was capable of. The first one I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was an amusing editorial cartoon in the Chicago Tribune this past weekend by Scott Stantis. A mother sits at the breakfast table, reading the newspaper, and announces to her two children that the Post Office might stop delivering letters on Saturday. Her son, busy at his laptop, asks, &#8220;What&#8217;s a letter?&#8221; Her daughter, texting [...]]]></description>

He takes the sound of 1960s sophisticated California pop (think Arthur Lee and Love or Jimmy Webb) and updates it with lyrics that shimmer with wit, intelligence, [...]]]></description>

I love doing jigsaw puzzles over the holidays: it gives me this luxurious feeling of burning time, like a millionaire torching twenty-dollar bills to light his cigars. But do I really have to go back to work tomorrow? I love teaching, but [...]]]></description>
