  1. Julie Powell _ Cleaving: A Story of Marriage,

    My brother wrote another refrigerator magnet poem, when he was probably nineteen or twenty: 'When the flood comes/ I will swim to a symphony/ go by boat to some picture show/ and maybe I will forget about you.' How did he know way, way back then? How is it I know only now?

  2. Julie Powell _ Cleaving: A Story of Marriage,
