A hospital, a happy ending, and my first novel

I thought they were sweets. They were not sweets.

On bombing, book rejections, and remembering how to want things.

On still dancing at 93.

Inheritance, vodka, and other forms of resurrection

Fashion, politics, and other things that pinch

On street psychics, survival in parts, and taking up space.

Margaret Trudeau, Canada, and why being a plus-one isn’t always what it seems.

A librarian, a library drama, and the uneasy art of being yourself in full view

On trying to control outcomes that were never yours to manage.
