Eden: a place of ignorance from which you are forcibly expelled, over and over. Finding two cruel high school teachers years later; a first, shattering sexual adventure; realizing the imminent breakup of a marriage against the backdrop of war protests; making up family members; a student jumps out of a third floor classoom; an unusual way of caring for a dying relative; three doctor visits in one day; an old man's fantasy; the perils of certainty; a freakish occurrence of happenstance that changes everything; a serial murderer hiding in plain sight; a demented US Senator running for President. Stories and essays about constantly learning how life does what it does, will not bend to our wills; about trying to stay awake, trying to learn, but always behind the arc. About trying to become compassionate, loving, useful, generous, and kind, even if just a little more than now. About always being kicked out of Eden.
