"It is a law of brain development that you will, when grown, remember every departure by every person to whom you should have called good-bye, and whom you ought to have embraced, and on whose cheeks you could have dispensed a couple of the dammed-up tears you persist in hoarding."
Reading these lines, I remembered the last time I saw my dad alive, in a hospital bed, full of pain from an as-yet undiagnosed cancer, and the too-casual "take it easy" good-bye I gave him. I thought too of Fred Busch, gone now for more than a dozen years, felled by a heart attack, and how much I wished Icould have known him. But that can never happen, so I will keep on reading his stories, novels, and essays. Thank you, Fred, for all of it. My very highest recommendation.
