Crowds of crows flew across the sky at dust last night.  Erratic paths in the wind and rain.  I didn’t loose electricity but my kids did and they came to my house to get warm and to charge their IPhones. Now I know the secret to getting them to visit. Puddles in the parking area, yellow acacia trees blowing in the wind. Everything is alive.  My older neighbors walk up and back on the street between the bursts of rain. I am inside looking out.

TELL ME HOW IT ENDS, an essay in forty questions by Valerie Luiselli is one of my favorite books.  Luiselli has a new book coming out and it is being reviewed in this week’s New Yorker by James Wood. I have added my name to the library reserve list.
