Aiden’s father took the littlest ones out to go pet the bunnies and chinchillas and such in the outside pen, and Jeremy knew by now that they were gentle with the more tender of the critters. Aiden’s mother brought the cake of course, and Aiden’s brothers and sisters showed up too. Summer was holding onto it’s heat a little, and he’d had to open all of the windows in the snug little two-story, letting the flowing curtains blow in and out as the wind swept the bowl valley of Granby. For him, as he learned to knit-and mastered his craft-it was like he worked all year for those three months, and then the big payoff in December.Īnd because he’d been just the help-and because Aiden had been a callow boy who had grown into a strong and able man-it had not occurred to any of the people who loved him most that Jeremy didn’t have a birthday.Ĭraw and Ben showed up at their house first, since Jeremy had elected to host. Aiden’s in August, Ariadne’s in September, and Craw’s in November. The first year Jeremy had come to Granby, Aiden had already been eighteen, but as Jeremy’s stay had grown beyond those first few months, when he lived in Craw’s tack room, and into the years in his own apartment, he’d become part of the family unit that celebrated each birthday as it arrived. Jeremy knew when Aiden’s birthday was-the beginning of the fall. He lives in Durham, North Carolina, with his wife and sons. The scenes are odd and sometimes violent, dark, and deeply disquieting. And, indeed, in the middle of each movie, the screen blinks dark for a moment and the movie is replaced by a few minutes of jagged, poorly lit home video. He is the writer, composer, guitarist, and vocalist for the band the Mountain Goats. Universal Harvester: The haunting new novel from, John Darnielle. JOHN DARNIELLE is the author of Wolf in White Van, which was a New York Times bestseller, National Book Award nominee, and a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for first fiction, and widely hailed as one of the best novels of the year. As Jeremy and those around him are absorbed into tapes, they become part of another story-one that unfolds years into the past and years into the future, part of an impossible search for something someone once lost that they would do anything to regain. In Universal Harvester, the once-placid Iowa fields and farmhouses become sinister, imbued with loss and instability and foreboding. Two days later, another customer returns another tape-a new release this time-and says the same: “There’s another movie on this tape.” The job's nice enough, quiet and predictable, until a local schoolteacher comes in to return her copy of Targets-an old movie, starring Boris Karloff-and registers an odd complaint: “There’s something on it,” she says, but doesn’t elaborate. It's the late '90s, and you can find Jeremy at the Video Hut in Nevada, Iowa, a small town in the center of the state.

SCHUR: I’d done all this reading, and I’d had all these discussions with all these smart people, and I had come to some kind of conversational understanding of the topic, and it felt like a blessing in some weird way that I had this new vocabulary that I could use to discuss my own personal failures. GAZETTE: Did you think you might want to write a book on the topic of moral philosophy one day? Michael Schur was getting ready to create “The Good Place,” his hit TV comedy about the afterlife and what it means to be a good person, and it occurred to him that to do it right he had to “actually know what I was talking about.” So, the 1997 College grad did a deep dive into seminal works of moral philosophy and talked to professors “who could help me learn and understand what it was all about.” Besides the show, what he learned also inspired his new book “How to Be Perfect: The Correct Answer to Every Moral Question.” The Gazette spoke with Schur about his interest in understanding, and helping others understand, how to be better. There are pleasures along the way: nice folks, and quiet days spent with Luke, her ``Darling Boy.'' But Luke, who doesn't smile at her jokes, works very hard and doesn't like her to flirt with him. Nonetheless, he chooses her, and they head out from Iowa in May 1865 to the homestead Luke has already planted in Colorado Territory. At 22, plain Mattie is astounded that handsome Luke Spenser desires to marry her-he has been keeping company with pretty Persia. Again, as in The Persian Pickle Club (1995), Dallas has caught the lilt and drift of regional speech. The buoyancy and simple, uncloying sweetness of spirit of Dallas's appealing protagonist-the young wife of a homesteader in Colorado Territory-give a bright, fresh shading to the tragedies and small sharp joys of 19th-century frontier life. After all, no one survives the end of the world alone.

In contrast, solitary trees, like street kids, have a tough time of it and in most cases die much earlier than those in a group.ĭrawing on groundbreaking new discoveries, Wohlleben presents the science behind the secret and previously unknown life of trees and their communication abilities he describes how these discoveries have informed his own practices in the forest around him. As a result of such interactions, trees in a family or community are protected and can live to be very old.
