SEED BREED

Now that Seven Days has become available in Southern Vermont (that amorphous region on the other side of Route 2), I find myself looking forward to each issue. Though I cannot say I agree with everything therein, I also can­ not imagine how boring life would be in a world of perfect synchro­ nization and unanimity. In that spirit of gentle reproach, I suspect that Marc Awodey s review of the Hudson River School [“Leaf Peepers,” April 23] needs a counterpoint. If nothing else, the reviewer seems to misapprehend the historical context in which many of those great canvasses were created: There were few photo­ graphs, no movies, no television, lithographic engraving was in its infancy, and paintings were one of the primary forms of communica­ tion. For many people, the only chance of encountering Yosemite was to view the glorious Bierstadt. To assign artistic merit based on the transitory whims of historians borders on the foolish — nearly as shortsighted as suggesting that some­ how the locus of creation —- within a studio or out of doors — some- ' C how can enhance or diminish the experience of the viewer. Arguing with a critic is the epistolary equiva­ lent of wrestling fog, but occasional­ ly another perspective can be helpful.

The statistics released by the Vermont Department of Agriculture last week [“Local Matters,” April 30], suggesting that over 40 percent of all the seeds sold in Vermont are geneti­ cally engineered, are extremely dis­ turbing. Commissioner Kerr believes that these figures should give us assurance that seed compa­ nies are doing their part to report essential information to the public. Instead, these statistics open a Pandora’s box of new concerns, and may represent a direct threat to the survival of organic farming in Vermont. First, the figures are inherently confusing. We were told that 44 percent of the seeds by weight are genetically engineered (GE). Then we were given figures on how much of each seed suppliers GE seeds are corn or soybeans or alfal­ fa or some other crop. We still don’t know how much of the corn is GE, nor do we know what pro­ portion of corn acreage (or any other crop’s total acreage) is GE. By themselves, these figures are somewhat meaningless. -* Still, they point to a ramch higher proportion of GE crops in Vermont than anyone ever expect­ ed... Throughout the world, peo­ ple have been resisting the genetic engineering of their food, requir­ ing clear labeling, and in many cases limiting imports of GE prod­

ucts. In Europe, foods with even half a percent of GE ingredients need to be labeled as such. Or­ ganic foods everywhere need to be reliably free of GE contamination, and a growing proportion of Vermont dairy farmers are saving their family farms by switching to more profitable and more environ­ mentally sound organic methods. But if Vermont’s organic farmers’ feed corn and sweet corn is being surrounded by fields of genetically engineered corn... the future of organics in Vermont is in serious danger. ...S.182 would mandate clear labeling and registration of GE seeds in Vermont. It is not enough to prevent contamination, but it will require much more consistent reporting of seed sales... And for . the large numbers of Vermont’s conventionaidairy farmers who don’t want to grow GE crops, it will finally give them a real choice... This seems like a useful and eminently sensible step'^ward a better future for Vermont’s struggfihg farmers, regardless of which

tors cuts, it seems to me I clearly identified Rumsfeld as the barbarian-in-chief in Iraq. How anyone could believe the Iraqi people are responsible for the chaos — a deliberate U.S. military objective — brought on their country by U.S. bombing, is beyond me. Is it so impossible to imagine how any­ one could call Americans — Americans! — barbarians? The indictments are rolling in. The U.N. has charged America with violating the Geneva

Protocols, which prohibit the destruction of cultural institu­ tions. The Archeological Institute of America has condemned the U.S. for violating the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property. Even within the Bush Admini­ stration, there is protest: Three members of the Cultural Advisory Committee, including the chair, have resigned, accusing the U.S. military of complicity in the plunder of antiquities.

These are war crimes, to be added to the long list of war crimes perpetrated by the U.S. in the last several weeks. This paper will not permit me adequate space to itemize that list, which grows daily. The list of U.S. war crimes since 1492 would take volumes. The most egregious of those crimes is the ruthless and systematic mur­ der of defenseless civilians — many of them children. The media refers to “unknown” numbers of civilian casualties, without, howev­

u ry H0WW6 IT R eally v

w il l

er, clarifying that the U.S. refusal to count its victims is a violation of the Geneva Conventions. No won­ der the U.S. has tried to under­ mine the establishment of an International Criminal Court, which would no doubt put Bush and Rumsfeld in the dock beside their old friends Milosevic, Osama and Saddam Hussein. The sacking of libraries must be viewed as a measure of the com­ plete, vicious lawlessness of the U.S. violence against humanity and against civility itself. Perhaps it is lazy to call people names. But my point is this: Even the critics of the Bush cartel credit their rule with legitimacy, as if they only dis­ agree with the “right approach” to the Iraq “problem,” or with their “interpretation” of the Consti­ tution. What shall we call them? Chicken-hawks? Greedy capitalists? Despots? Imperialists? I call them barbarians. They are shredding the Constitution because it is a document they haven’t even read. This is not business as usual. The U.S.’ unprovoked invasion of Iraq bears some resemblance to the tradition of U.S. imperialism, but these are dark, dark forces that have been unleashed on the world. Un­ less we energetically exercise our right to dissent before it is gone, the chaos in Baghdad will be only the beginning.

PANTS ON FIRE Lies, lies, lies and more lies! That neatly sums up the Bush Admini­ stration. Lies about Social Security. Lies about taxes. Lies about the environment. And more execrable, because it resulted in the deaths of many fine young Americans and many more innocent Iraqis — lies about why we went to war [“Crank Call,” April 16]. The phrase “Weapons of Mass Distraction” comes to mind. The real reason we went to war?? Oil! Put that in your SUV and burn it. Strange, isn’t it, that the unguarded Iraqi museum of antiquities was looted, but the Ministry of Oil building, heavily guarded by Marines, remained unscathed and ready for business? And, pray tell, where were all the media eunuchs in all this — you know, Tom, Dan, Peter, Jim, Marselis, Darren, et al. — who, like the 18th-century castrati, had their integrity surgically removed in order to better sing their mas­ ter’s tune. Perhaps they feared that Tom “cry wolf” Ridge would issue a new threat code color — black, for “keep your mouth shut, you can always be declared an illegal combatant, and there’s no air-con­ ditioning in those interrogation cells at Guantanamo.”

oe Trippi is no LSD guru, but he sure was feeling pretty high this week about how his boss performed in the Democratic presidential candidates debate in Columbia, South Carolina. Trippi’s a fortysomething political junkie/consultant/spinmeister who start­ ed in the game while a teenager growing up in San Jose, California. Joe went to

In fact, said the Trippster, every time Ho-Ho appears on national TV he gets a big bump in popularity. And the bump appears online as the curi­ ous sign up by the thousands for Dean PHOTO: PE TER FR EYN E “meetups” all around the country. Check out: http://dean2004.meetup.com. No candidate has ever tapped the Internet the way Howard Dean has. It’s one of the skills that Trippi, a Silicon Valley brat with a technology back­ ground, brings to the doctor’s table. The second skill Trippi offers is his wealth of knowledge about Iowa. He knows the Hawkeye State, site of the first Democratic showdown,dike the back of his hand. And he fully intends to do for Dean what he did for Mondale. That explains why Ho-Ho’s spent more time in Iowa iq the last year than in Vermont. :^JL Trippi liras delighted with Dean’s TV debate performance, but he was a little bat for a black woman running for city council against a powerful incumbent. perturbed that most of the press contin­ ues to miss the big story.

• The Spanish company Polyphonic HMI said that it has developed software that can predict a song’s chances of becoming a hit before it is released. Five major record labels so far are testing it. According to New Scientist, the software, dubbed Hit Song Science, works by matching a song against the musical traits of known hits, searching for pat­ terns in melody, harmonic variation, beat, tempo, rhythm, pitch, chord pro­ gression and fullness of sound. These traits were determined by analyzing 3.5 million songs. “There are a limited number of mathematical formulas for hit songs,” Mike McCready, Polyphonies HM I’s chief executive, said. “We don’t know why.” McCready added that songs with matching traits don’t always sound the same, pointing out that Beethoven and U2 share similar values and that Norah Jones falls into the same cluster of traits as hard rockers Van Halen.

Voice Lessons udith Levine’s controversial book Harmful to Minors earned a major literary prize two weeks ago. Her unflinching exploration of teenage sexuality won a coveted L.A. Times Book Award. “It was like the Oscars,” Levine says of the West Coast event, at which she received first place in the “current interest” category from presenter George Plimpton. “You sit in the audience and you don’t know who’s going to win. We all had to prepare an acceptance speech.” Hers was Michael Moore-esque. Levine compared the perils of protecting children from erotic pleasure to the recent erosion of civil liberties in the United States. She expounded, “Our anxieties have shifted from sex to terror­ ism, another danger that is both real and infinitely expansive to justify any authori­ tarian measure... W hat are the dangers we are being protected from? Are they real or imagined to scare us into consent?” When it was published last year, Harmful to Minors inspired outrage among conserva­ tives, including U.S. Rep. Tom DeLay, for its libertarian approach to adolescent erot^ « |^ 'L q p n e w as«ccuse4«^ro® pting c . p*dophml. After all tm tt||om ihg % it T: top must feel like a vindication. “Winnin well is the best revenge,” Levine Concurs. Her parting stunt must have been equally gratifying. Award in hand, Levine shout­ ed, “Here’s to you, Dr. Laura!” . . . Speaking of right-wing radio personalities, it looks like Rush Limbaugh will soon have local competition in the early after­ noon when Progressive politico Anthony Pollina starts making waves on WDEV. The deal isn’t signed yet, but “We are working on something,” says station owner Ken Squier. “We have a very good conservative program,” he says, referring to “True N orth,” which airs at 11 a.m. on WDEV. “One thing we’ve been trying to do all along is to keep things balanced. There needs to be more local dialogue, more local voices — not just syndicated voices from San Francisco,” Squier says. “They have come forward and have some ideas about what they can do with Anthony.” Pollina’s peo­ ple say Squier came to them, but other­ wise both sides are keeping quiet on the details. Rumor has it Rep. Bernie Sanders will host the show once a week. Stay tuned.

RUSSIAN FRONT Andre Smirnoff was prepared for a lesson in local politics when he visited the Vermont Statehouse with a group of classmates last month. The Burlington High School senior was definitely not expecting to shoot the shit — in Russian — with the state’s highestranking public official. Governor Jim Douglas was at the Legislature for a press conference when he exchanged hellos with Smirnoff, then noticed the young man’s nametag was written in Cyrillic. So Douglas switched to Russian, which he picked up at Middlebury College during the Cold War. Smirnoff says the guv had an American accent, but, “I was just impressed that I could ask a question and he would answer me back in my native language.” Douglas gave

card, then autographed it and posed for a picture. “I hope to go to the Statehouse again and we’U meet like old friends,” says Smirnoff, who will be a freshman next year at St. Michael’s College . . . Might we suggest buddying up for a screening of Russian Ark when it opens at the Savoy on May 23? The long-awaited movie, which was shot in a single, contin­ uous take at the Hermitage Museum, fea­ tures a cast of 2000 characters in 19thcentury costume. It was supposed to play at the Green Mountain Film Festival in March, but was cancelled because one of the reels got lost in the mail. Nothing worse than an incomplete Russian epic.

SNAP JUDGMENT? Photographers across the country will take to the streets next week to capture the essence of America in a nationwide shoot consid­ ered to be the largest picture-taking proj­ ect in history. The best results will be published in a compendium, America 24/7, that will dedicate a volume to every state. Anyone with a digital camera is invited to submit, but regional coordina­ tors in each state also nominated pros for the project. Two “conventional” Vermont photographers — Jack Rowell and Peter Miller — were not smiling last week when they were nixed from the list of select “contract photographers” com­ piled by former Free Press shooter Karen Pike. “Jack and Peter are two of the most respected and talented photogra­ phers in Vermont,” Pike wrote in a pleading email to the national office. Apparently fans of the photogs con­ vinced the editors to give both another shot. “The next day, FedEx dropped off a new camera,” says Rowell. “Now I’ve gotta learn how to use the thing.” ©

THE PUZZLE: As you can guessfrom her name, Fickle Fannie is hard to pre­ dict. Her preferences change from one week to the next. This week, as always, the things she likes (shown in CAPITAL letters) allfollow a secret rule. Can you figure out what it is? (Note: Fickle Fannie likes words. But each week she likes something different about them— how they're spelled, how they sound, how they look, what they mean, or what’s inside them.) Fannie avoids the races at SARATOGA, but she loves to "take the waters." When she got stung on the lip by a YELLOW JACKET, she looked like a Ubangi.

She once used her GARDEN HOSE to water some obnoxious neighborhood brats. NEW JERSEY, the Garden State, has been given a bad name by the Sopranos. Her cousin Krinkel calls himself a TRAILBLAZER because he spray paints trees. In public she eats sprouts and wheat germ, but in private she wolfs down a BIG MAC. She once dated an Olympic SKI JUMPER but dumped him because he was too kinky.

UNDERSTAND.

BY CECIL ADAMS A L L W O R T H W H IL E H U M A N K N O W L E D G E

Z)^vzr Cecil, I conducted due diligence at your Web site, butfound no reference to a delicate but vital question that has been nag­ ging mefor some time now. Can you please tell me whether it is more sanitary to aim directly for the back wall o f a uri­ nal or to splash into the water? Which minimizes splashback? Do urinal designers consider this in the same way that, say, auto designers use wind tunnels to minimize air resistance? This question takes on heightened urgency when I visit guests homes and the issue o fauditory embarrassment is considered. — Mathias Dubilier Burlington, Vermont Certain parties, and they’re not all necessarily female par­ ties, are now rolling their eyes and making eww-ick nois­ es, the wusses. I’m sorry, but there are things the world needs to know. We’ll call this discussion Men Are Pigs, Part Two. Men Are Pigs, Part One, which surely few have for­ gotten, dealt with the question of why toilet seats in public restrooms are U-shaped. Answer: To eliminate the part that men are most likely to scuzz up. Urinal design is intended to address a similar problem. Some men, of whom your fastidious columnist is one, can use a urinal without soaking themselves and the floor in the process. However, judging from the swamplike condition of the average men’s room, the percentage of men who have mastered this useful art is not significant. The principal . difficulty, which will surprise few women, is improper aim, For a view from the trenches, as it were, I spoke to Gary Uhl, director of design for American Standard, one of the leading makers of toilet fixtures. Gary told me that considerable thought has gone into the design of the

modern urinal in order to eliminate splashback. The rear wall of the typical urinal is parabolic in cross section when viewed from above, and the porcelain finish is con­ ducive to laminar flow. The principles of fluid dynamics tell us that a fluid striking a smooth surface at an oblique angle will tend to flow along that surface. Assuming the source of the fluid is near the focal point of the parabola — and modesty makes it unlikely he’ll stray too far — the fluid will run straight down the urinal wall with little or no splashing. I asked Gary if there were a “sweet spot” at which '■ users should aim to minimize splashback. He said no.' Clearly, however, certain assumptions are being made, the foremdst of which is that the user is going to aim for the back wall. (Actually, assumption number one is that the user is going to aim, period.) But some men, such as you, Mathias, wonder whether they should “splash into the water.” You’d think the answer would be obvious. Since it isn’t, let me put the matter plainly: If you splash into the water, you knucklehead, the water is going to splash on you. But men don’t listen. What then to do? Several approaches have been advanced: (1) Build a splashproofurinal. See for example www.marketlaunchers.com/wilkins.html. Part of the idea with this design is to make the urinal deeper and more concave. I’m sure it’s an improvement. The only problem is that it looks like a huge white... well, let’s just say you feel like you ought to cover it with a giant fig leaf. You’re not getting me to use this thing in public. (2) Try to make the best o f a bad situation. A number of vendors offer urinal drain screens with ribbed designs said to reduce splashback. These mitigate the negative consequences when the lads aim for the deodorant cakes. But to my mind, such screens are a halfway measure at best. (3) Give men something higher to shootfor. Now we’re talking. Gary tells me that management at the interna­ tional terminal of New York’s Kennedy airport specified that the image of a black fly be printed on the porcelain at the center of the back wall of every urinal. When given a target, it seems, men instinctively aim at it. The fly was originally introduced at the Schiphol airport in Amsterdam, where it supposedly reduced spillage by 80 percent. Side benefit: Folks who’ve seen these urinals never again utter the cliche, “I wish I were a fly on the wall.” One final note: It has nothing to do with urinals, but you did mention “auditory embarrassment.” (What, you want me to believe you’re visiting people who’ve got uri­ nals in their homes?) If you ever have occasion to build or renovate a bathroom, and the plumber asks you if you want the soil stack (the main drainpipe for the toilets) made out of plastic instead of the traditional cast iron, say no. Cast iron muffles sound; plastic, also known as polyvinyl chloride or PVC, amplifies it. Oh, ga-ross, you say. But someday you may be glad to know. CECIL ADAMS

Eyes on the Sky

here was a time when the dominance of the dinosaurs was on the wane and the Earth itself was up for grabs. The largest mammal then living was the size of a spaniel, but the biggest winged animal was, in the words of naturalist Sir David Attenborough, “immense.” In his award-winning 1998 documentary The Life o f Birds, which retains its fresh­ ness in an interactive online resource, Attenborough calls this creature the “Terror Bird,” and an animated sequence shows the thing materializing around him from the discovery of one enormous thighbone. Massive and flightless, and possessing huge jawbones equipped with sharp crushing teeth, the Terror Bird was nature’s prehistoric experiment with the oversized avian — the ostrich being a pale and distant, undersized cousin. The Terror Bird had no reason to fly — until mammals grew in population, species and cunning. Flight is born from the need to escape, and birds gradually lost their teeth and heavy jaws while their bones lightened and what had been the keratinized scales of those granddaddies the reptiles became the keratinized feathers of an entirely new genus. Ceding the ground to the mammals, they took to the air. (Attenborough’s newest installment, The Life o f Mammals, on public tele­ vision this month, traces the mammals’ triumph and also has a fine site for fur­ ther investigation.)

What’s more, their lives may be the best indicators we heavy, gravitybound mortals have of our own chances for survival. The springtime mating cycle now in progress finds birds at their most vulnera­ ble and visible. The skies seem to be full of small, angry Brewer’s blackbirds fero­ ciously chasing large, hungry Red Tail hawks away from their nesting territories — and winning. The trees ring with out­ raged squawks when a predator is success­ ful and a chick is snatched from the nest. Yet such obvious avian varieties as hawks and blackbirds don’t begin to explain the phenomenon of bird watch­ ing — known to the initiated as birding

According to a recent Environmental Protection Agency report, posted online, some 63 million Americans spend $20 billion each year on this fast-growing hobby. Their num­ bers are increasing by upwards of 30 percent annually as newcomers become hooked on scanning the skies. As many as 23 million people travel each year specifically to watch birds, and in 1991 — the most recent year for which data is available — this movement generated 191,000 jobs and $895 million in rev­ enue and taxes nationally.

Oh, Little Town o f... — Burlington got a little taste of the Israeli occupation of Palestine this week. The city and its sister-city program had received a grant to bring two Palestinian high school students and their teacher to Burlap for a two-week visit. According to Bill Mitchell, assistant to Mayor Peter Clavelle, the first hurdle was getting permission for the Bethlehem residents to go to the U.S. Consulate in Jerusalem to obtain visas. The teacher was twice denied permission. One student made it. The other already had a U.S. passport. But at the very last minute, the Israeli military refused the students permission to leave the occupied West Bank to travel to the airport in Tel Aviv. Fortunately, said Mitchell, they had purchased refundable tickets. “We’ll try again in the fall,” he said. The grant is good until December 1.

— In a 180-degree reversal, Fletcher Allen Health Care (FAHC) rehired Marley Skiff, RN, last week. Nurse Skiff, a union activist who’d been nominated to the Mary Fanny’s board of trustees by the union and Congressman Bernie Sanders, was sacked on Good Friday. Hospital manage­ ment claimed she had violated confidentiality rules by passing on the names and phone num­ bers of nonunion workers. “I’m amazed,” said O f Bernardo, “that in the midst of contract negotiations they fired one of the nurses who was active in the union.” He personally called CEO Ed Colodny about the firing. Two weeks ago, 200 nurses attended a candlelight vigil out­ side Mister Ed’s College Street condo complex to protest the outrageous treatment of Nurse Skiff. In the wake of the $356 mil­ lion Renaissance Scandal, firing Skiff provided hard evidence the powers that be on Hospital Hill still don’t get it. The firing emboldened the nurses’ union, which has been trying to negoti­ ate a contract with the hospital

since December. Time, folks, is running out. Meanwhile, while FAHC is firing good nurses during a nurs­ ing shortage, State Auditor Elizabeth Ready has raised the alarm over all the traveling nurs­ es the hospital hires to plug the holes in the patient-care dike. According to figures she obtained from the Department of Banking, Insurance, Securities and Health Care Administration (BISHCA), the Mary Fanny’s been shelling out $6.7 million annually to fill 60 traveling-nurse positions. The “travelers” are lured to Burlington by hospital ads promising “high pay rates, luxury housing, great benefits, free insurance, relocation reim­ bursement.” In a letter Chainsaw Liz sent Mister Ed this week, she sug­ gested, “It may be worth exam­ ining whether it would be less expensive to hire full-time, per­ manent nurses rather than hiring traveling nurses.” Good point, eh? RS. In a reversal of its ridicu­ lous editorial decision to ignore Marley Skiff’s firing, The Burlington Free Press reported last Friday on her rehiring! The Freeps, as everyone knows, is owned by the giant Gannett chain, one of the most antiunion outfits around. So it came as no big surprise the paper declined to cover the story. Can you say “censorship?” he blackout also extended to the Freeps editorial page. Editorial page editor David Awbrey refused to publish letters in sup­ port of Skiff In an email response to one let­ ter writer obtained by Seven Days, Mr. Awbrey defended the ban. “Sorry, but this doesn't work as a letter to the editor,” he wrote. “It involves a work/ employment dispute at a private organization. Letters space is reserved for issues of public poli­ cy or wide community interest, not personnel matters.” Strange newspaper, eh?

Corrections — We’re getting old. In last week’s item about the Republican leadership stonewalling the Burlington charter changes, we incorrectly identified the chair of the House Committee on Local Government as Judy Bloomer. Sorry. The Widow Bloomer has indeed remarried. The lucky gentleman is State Sen. John Crowley. Gov. Jim Douglas recently appointed him BISH­ CA commissioner. And Judy is today Judy Bloomer Crowley. Thanks for reminding us, Rep. Connie Houston. Also, Connie says Democrat

John Tracy of Burlington is wrong about her being a land­ lord. Connie, a Vergennes real­ tor, told Seven Days she got out of the landlord business a decade ago.

Sen. Landlord? — Did you catch Republican State Sen. Kevin Mullin of Rudand on Ch. 3 News the other night, throwing a hissy fit in Senate

Government Ops? Burlington Mayor Peter Clavelle and City Attorney Joe McNeil were testifying in sup­ port of the two charter changes voters backed on March 5. Usually the legislature rubberstamps what the locals have decided. Local control, after all, is sacred in Vermont, right? But Sen. Mullin was con­ frontational. Mullin came out of the closet as the owner of a cou­ ple apartment houses in Rutland. He said he’s personally experi­ enced tenant trouble. Mullin said he had a problem with the City of Burlington changing its land­ lord-tenant law. The freshman senators low regard for the renter class shone brightly! he charter change would require Burlington landlords to give tenants 90 days notice for no-cause evictions. The change was supported by a landlordtenant task force, the city coun­ cil, the mayor and the voters. But a few members of the del­ egation from Rudand, a onceproud Democratic city that’s been in Republican hands since civil unions, see Burlington as some sort of communist threat. Rep. Judy Bloomer Crowley told Ch. 3 s Andy Potter she just doesn’t “believe in rental control.” She said she “doesn’t like the city getting involved in landlord-tenant laws.” Wow. So much for the dem­ ocratic system, eh? e ^ _i

Legalized at Last! — Gov. Jim Douglas is about to sign into law a bill that will for the first time legalize sparklers in Vermont. His predecessor, Dr. Howard Dean, considered sparklers unsafe. Kids get burned. Ho-Ho has firsthand experience. Congratulations to the sparkling cosponsors of H. 44: Reps. John Tracy (DBurlington) and Rep. Dick Marron (R-Stowe). And kudos to lobbyist Lisa Nolen Birmingham of Dinse, Knapp & McAndrew! Lisa the Lobbyist effectively represented the fireworks indus­ try, shepherding the sparkler legalization-bill through the leg­ islature. (Ms. Birmingham is also the chair of the District 5 Environmental Commission.) But why would a mild-man­ nered, safety-conscious dude like Jim Douglas sign on to the sparkler train? “First of all,” said Gov. Jimbo, “they are widely used. Perhaps you’ve noticed, perhaps you haven’t. But it seems impractical to ban something common to the traditions of our state and others.” “Secondly,’ added Douglas, “it’s a question of the level of dan­ ger. Should we ban matches?” So, Governor, the Douglas policy is to legalize an illegal product if it’s widely popular and relatively harmless? Sounds like a great argument for legalizing marijuana, eh? ®

chrome men on the walls likely participated in a dance or two in their time. O n a stage at the far end of the hall, caller Susan Kevra stood by an eclectic acoustic scratch band that was churning out a roiling, Irish-influenced dance tune. At first I stood at the periphery, where I planned to watch and learn. But I had trouble divining the steps. My eyes were beguiled by the swirl of skirts and loose hair, the snappy sashays and spins of contradance regulars and the free­ wheeling turns and awkward allemandes of firsttimers. Dazzled by the kaleidoscopic currents of motion on the floor, I soon realized that it was impossible to learn a dance without being in the thick of it. I don’t dance often, or well. I get self-conscious bobbing and shuffling at DJ dances, and, because I’m a control freak, I don’t do well in couples dances where my partner is supposed to “lead.” But con­ tradancing moves too quickly for a person to remain self-conscious or inhibited for long. And based on what I could see from the sidelines, there seemed to be very little leading involved. In any event, I hadn’t come all this way just to sit and watch other people cut a rug. When the dancers dissolved into new sets for the next number, I moved onto the floor. Each dance was explained step-by-step. Some moves, like “do-si-do,” I remembered from middleschool square dances, but most were alien to me. Ladies’chain? Balance and swing? Ripped and snort? Fortunately, most of my neighboring dancers knew what they were about, ,and helped me navigate the caller’s instructions. A gap-toothed, grinning old man in a blue T-shirt helped me perfect my allemande, showing me the appropriate grip and tension to apply. Several people gave me spinning pointers — one said gently, “It helps if you don’t jump up and down.” Some steps no one knew, like “ripped and snort,” in which one couple forms an archway and six other dancers thread between them hand-in-hand. Mosdy, though, I just watched other people and picked up the steps as the dances repeated themselves. Even so, I did get hopelessly dizzy during a few dances and more than a little lost during most. The dances are rapid, with one step bleeding into the next in a fluid weave of movement. But as disori­ ented as I sometimes got, I never stopped having fun; the music was wild and vibrant, it felt good to be moving and my more accomplished dance part­ ners were always forgiving — even when I trampled their feet. Towards the end o f the evening, I took a break to speak with Todd Taska, who organizes the Montpelier contradance. In a voice raised to carry over the band, he affirmed my sink-or-swim approach: “The way people learn is by doing.” Taska added that it’s important for new dancers to

be flexible about who they dance with, even if they come with a date. Partner-swapping is de rigueur in contradancing, and you’re unlikely to learn much if you only dance with fellow beginners. (And you never know what might happen in the arms of a stranger; Taska met his wife at a contradance.) Because of the rapid exchange of partners in a single dance, contradancing isn’t just a social ice­ breaker — it’s an ice pulverizer. As Henry Rich, a yourig man frojrt Connecticut, pointed out, “ypu might dance with 20 strangers in 10 minutes.” Some might find this therapeutic; for others it’s a great way to meet people. For most, it’s a bit of both.

Contradancing is aerobic, social, cerebral and cooperative. Though the prospect of learning and memorizing steps, executing them with grace, keeping in time with the music and keeping track of your partner may initially daunt newcomers, the support of advanced dancers makes the challenges surmountable. As long-time contradancer Anna Seeger put it, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t know what you’re doing — everyone helps you out.” One might be tempted to view contradancing as an archaic, Old World holdover, a dinosaur dance. This Montpelier contradance is 20 years old, but the activity — derived from dance traditions that predate the “discovery” of the New World — has a long history. For the last several hundred years, contradancing percolated in New England, where it has achieved a distinctly American flavor that sets it apart from its earlier incarnations. It has persisted in the face of societal sea changes and has recently begun to catch on in the Pacific Northwest. If the potpourri of people at last Saturday’s event is any indication, contradancing is alive and literally kick­ ing here in Vermont. As the Grange dance wound down, I sat on one of the benches lining the hall and tried to take stock of the folks on the dance floor. A surprising cross-section of society was dancing to the same beat. Among the faces that surfaced and submerged in the froth of the dance, I spotted a woman with an eye patch and a girl with piercings in her cheeks. Graying men and women joined hands with flush­ faced teens; well-groomed yuppies promenaded with colorfully attired college students. It was impossible to generalize about the crowd, except that they were all dancing and seemed to be having a hell of a time. Now that I’m a seasoned contradancer myself, I can offer sage advice to anyone who has yet to try it out: Be flexible, not shy. Bring clean, soft-soled shoes. And don’t be fooled by that simple calendrical direction, “Move your feet.” It really does mean a whole lot more. ®

t’s not a victory. It’s just the right thing to do. That’s how nurses at Fletcher Allen Health Care described the hospital’s decision last week to reinstate Marley Skiff The nine-year dialysis nurse was fired on April 18 for giving her union the names and telephone numbers of several of her co-workers. A wellrespected RN with a spotless work history, Skiff also serves on the nurses’ union bargaining team. That she was canned for a relatively minor infraction at a time when the hospital is already struggling with an acute nursing shortage raised howls of union-bust­ ing, a claim the administration denied. Some nurses saw Skiff s dismissal as a return to the climate of '^fpv; to..

This week, nurses expressed relief and optimism over the administration’s quick change of heart. But they also said that to focus on this one incident obscures the bigger picture; that not enough is being done to stop the flow of nurses who are leav­ ing the profession. They remain troubled that the statewide hospital association continues to oppose legislation that would benefit nurses, patients and profits. And they’re disappointed that more progress hasn’t been made this year in the Legis­ lature on a package of bills that could improve nurses’ working conditions, cut down on preventa­ ble medical errors and protect whistleblowers who disclose unsafe or life-threatening practices. Stephen Kimbell, chief lobbyist for Vermont’s 14 community hospitals, argues that all these bills, though well-intentioned, are concerns to be addressed at the bargaining table, not by statute. “Issues like whisdeblower and staffing ratios and overtime

requirements need to be resolved as close as possible to the workplace, not in the halls of Montpelier,” Kimbell says. “This is not the place to be enacting rules for a fluid workplace like a hospital.” Local nurses contend, however, that if the Legislature is willing to take on other issues involv­ ing rising health-care costs, it cannot afford to overlook the financial and human costs of the cur-

rent nursing crisis. In short, cost-saving must go hand in hand with life-saving. Consider the issue of patient-to-nurse ratios, a debate underway not only in Vermont but nation­ wide. As health expert and author Suzanne Gordon noted recently during a hearing in Montpelier, the United States spends $1.3 billion each year dealing with patient bedsores. Why? Because when hospi­ tals and health-care facilities are understaffed, patients don’t get turned in their beds. More sobering is the death count. Numerous studies confirm what Vermont’s nurses have been saying for years: The more patients a nurse has to attend, the more likely one will die under his or her care. A report in the Journal o f the American Medical Association found that each additional patient assigned to a nurse increases the likelihood of a patient death by 7 percent. Another study found that as many as 20,000 deaths a year nation­ wide may be linked to inadequate staffing. “We’ve been wearing stickers that say, ‘I support safe staffing ratios,”’ reports Jennifer Henry, a regis­ tered nurse at Fletcher Allen and union chairper­ son. “That’s causing patients to say, ‘Well, aren’t they safe now?’ Not really.” Better staffing ratios can also attract more people to the nursing profession and help retain those who are already there. California’s Kaiser Permanente, the nation’s largest not-for-profit HM O, launched a safe­ staffing initiative last year that put caps on patientto-nurse ratios. The result? Kaiser increased the num­ ber of nurses it hired by 71 percent and reduced the number who quit by 47 percent in just one year. Currendy, two bills, H.335 and S. 158, would address hospital staffing ratios in Vermont. Sponsors don’t expect either measure to move this year. Nurses are not only understaffed but over­ worked, and few professionals know better the effects of stress, fatigue and sleep deprivation on the human body. Yet Vermont nurses are routinely working 10- to 12-hour shifts, often longer. The situation is not only driving nurses away from the bedside in record numbers but also putting patients’ lives at risk. A study by the Institute of Medicine estimated that as many as 98,000 people die each year from preventable medical errors — about 268 per day. “Imagine if you had 10 days of jumbo jets crashing every day. Would that be an issue?” asks Henry. “We accept that when a nurse comes in and has alcohol on her breath, she gets sent home, and rightly so, because we believe she is mentally and physically impaired,” Sue Lucas, a registered nurse at Copley Hospital, said during her testimony in Montpelier. “Yet, you can be exhausted at the end of your shift, you can be sleep-deprived and you can be mentally and physically impaired, and your

employer thinks it’s OK to keep you. That just doesn’t work.” Nurses warn that without improvements to their work environment, Vermont will continue to see its nurses moving to neighboring states in record num­ bers. A survey in February’s Advance fo r Nurses, a nursing trade publication, found that Vermont RNs earn an average of $22.46 per hour, the lowest wage on the East Coast. In comparison, Connecticut nurses average $28 per hour. But proponents of an overtime ban say the real issue is jpot abotft moriey but about creating a work environment that keeps nurses — and patients — healthy and happy. “People are dying because of this and nurses carry that burden,” says Henry. “No wonder they’re leav­ ing the profession.” Another pair of bills pending before the Legislature — H.337 and S.157 — would ban mandatory overtime, just as five other states have done. But Rep. Anne Donahue (R—Northfield), who sponsored H.337, says her bill will not be voted on before lawmakers leave this session. Still, she is optimistic the issue will be addressed in 2004. “We just had the new health commissioner in to meet with us last week and I think we were very impressed by him and his interest in hospital quality,” Donahue says. “I think we’re going to work well with him on this issue.” One concern of nurses that may be addressed this year is whistleblower protection for health-care work­ ers. “It’s very important that people feel free to talk about hospital conditions without feeling that there’s going to be any retribution,” says Sen. Ginny Lyons, (D—Chittenden), who sponsored the Senate version, S. 154. “It just does not make sense to me that peo­ ple would not be able to identify egregious issues and then have to pay a price for doing what is right.” While a patchwork of federal laws protects some health-care professionals who disclose abuse, fraud, unethical or life-threatening practices, most of those statutes only apply to government-run facili­ ties — like veterans’ hospitals — or those that receive federal funds. Rep. Donahue’s version of the bill, H.399, was split off from a more comprehen­ sive hospital oversight bill and is now in the House Judiciary Committee. She says its future remains uncertain, though there is a chance it may squeak by this year. Likewise, Sen. Lyons says if there’s political will in Montpelier to pass any of these bills, it will be whistleblower protection. While nurses may not have much cause for cele­ bration during this National Nurses Week, they are hopeful that changes will come, albeit slowly. “We are at a crossroad, I believe,” Marley Skiff told near­ ly 200 fellow nurses at a recent candlelight vigil supporting her reinstatement. “We can continue to do business as usual or we can rise above it.” ® « H-Wh 1 *■®M * « J

ack in 1963, before Greg Guma made his mark as a Vermont journalist and political activist, he was hon­ ing his rhetorical skills in high school, winning dra­ matic interpretative contests with his delivery of Atticus Finch’s closing statement to the jury from To Kill a Mockingbird.

gentlemen, is a court.” But the speech is also a revela­ tory character moment, one in which all the elements of Atticus’ personality — his careful diction, his brav­ ery, his clear-eyed view of the world — coalesce. In the film, when Peck exits the courtroom in defeat and the black observers in the balcony pay tribute by standing en masse, it’s a credit to his performance that the moment is touching rather than infuriating. Any actor tackling the role on stage has to contead with filmgoers’ memories of Pecldi magisterial prdser!te.! !)‘k Hoiv-dbeiVermortf Stigb do on these fhted :13-A counts? First, and pretty wondrously, they got the kids. Oh, there’s some playing-with-hair and hands-inpockets awkwardness, but the children — in particu­ lar 10-year-old Francesca Blanchard as Scout — are the production’s most consistent bright spots. Blanchard is charmingly forthright; you have no trou­ ble believing her sweet fearlessness could unman the mob threatening to attack her father at the jailhouse. This is one of the production’s more effective scenes, even though the crowd doesn’t seem particularly men­ acing. And she nails the countrified humor with aplomb: “He’s gone frog-stickin’ without a light.” As Jem, Francois Bouchett captures the tremulous intensity of a boy growing up, and Joey BehlendorPs Dill has just the right mix of formality and mischief.

Distances are vague, and timing is off — for exam­ ple, moments after the famous incident when Atticus shows unexpected shooting prowess by picking off a rabid dog, the neighbor ladies stroll in from where the dog was. Good thing Atticus was a crack shot. All these flaws detract from the mood. At the out­ set, things look promising; there are field spngs a,t*d A bird sdiAids, and when Miss Maudie (Mary Wheeler) talks about the mimosa in the air, you can almost smell it. But the major problem with the production, and with Christopher Sergei’s adaptation, is that they’re too literal, trotting out incidents in pedestrian, Cliff Notes fashion rather than spinning them into a compelling yarn. The attack on Jem by a man seeking revenge on his father should be harrowing, but it’s staged in such a rushed, cursory manner that it hardly registers. Atticus’ ominous warning that it’s a sin to kill a mock­ ingbird — a statement foreshadowing the fate of Tom Robinson, the innocent man accused of rape — comes well into the book and film, but occurs in the first few minutes of the stage adaptation. The actors might as well hold up a sign announcing “MES­ SAGE.” Wheeler is a soothing, stable presence as Maudie, but when she turns to the audience and nar­ rates, it seems merely a device for the playwright to dispense with some plot points. The courtroom scenes work well enough. Esau

There’s some playing-with-hair and hands-in-pockets awkwardness, but the children are Mockingbird’s most consistent bright spots. Mark Nash has staged the play in the round, and it’s a small space, so set designer Jenny Fulton goes for spareness: Two porch-like platforms, a tire swing and assorted chairs must represent several different locales. The courtroom works fine; Atticus can address the entire audience as if we were the gentlemen of the jury, and the witness box is represented, ingeniously enough, by a swivel chair. But too often in the neighborhood scenes, the actors just stand around — there are few levels to work with, and they haven’t been directed to use the space very creatively. For instance, the house of myste­ rious neighbor Boo Radley is the nexus of all child­ hood fears, but we never feel its presence, either through the actors’ work or the set design. Mean neighbor Mrs. Dubose (Ramona Godfrey) is periodi­ cally wheeled in on a dolly, which is supposed to read

Pritchett and Emily Cervini may overdo the quakes and quivers a bit in the roles of Robinson and his accuser, but their anguish is affecting. And it should be noted that two of the key actors in this scene do impressive double duty elsewhere in the play: Bob Nuner, stern Judge Taylor, is also shy farmer Cunningham; Cy Moore, an oily prosecutor Gilmer, transforms himself shortly thereafter into a halting, gentle Boo. Jim Reid is solid throughout as sensible Heck Tate, the sheriff. As for Atticus, Christian Kauffman may not make you forget Peck, but he makes That Speech his own. In a way, he’s more appropriate for the role than Peck; he has the height, the gravity and the mellifluous voice but he’s also a little more worn-looking and less

movie-starish, so it’s easy to accept when his kids complain that he’s too old. Kauffman stumbled over a few lines on opening night; no doubt he will kick up the intensity a notch over the run. All in all, if you know To Kill a Mockingbird, you’ll find this produc­ tion a serviceable, if uneven, revival; if you don’t, its sometimes clunky storytelling may make you wonder why the original won all those awards. If that’s the case, check out the book or the movie and you’ll discover a minor modern classic.

may send you running back to your history books. Editor of the Burlington-based progressive newsletter Toward Freedom, Guma has spent years researching the events in his historical drama, the Haymarket bombing in 1886 Chicago and the Red Scare of 1919. Not surprisingly, then, one problem with the play in its cur­ rent stage of development is that there’s perhaps too much history and not enough drama, an over­ load of archival oratory and a mul­ titude of characters and events. He’s also in the midst of deciding whether he wants to write a play or a screenplay or a piece of agit­ prop, and right now the piece has aspects of all three. That said, the script has great potential, particularly in its focus on one fascinating character, and director Bill Boardman, known for his work with the Panther Players on radio and CD, found numer­ ous inventive ways to tell the story through the convention of a script-in-hand radio drama. A brief historical refresher: On May 4, 1886, during a labor protest in Chicago’s Haymarket area, some­ one in the crowd threw a bomb which killed seven police officers. Political radicals were arrested by the dozens as a result, and eight of the most visible were brought to trial and convicted of murder even though there was virtually no evi­ dence of their involvement. Four of those men were hung, and one killed himself in prison. Bombings alleged to be the work of anarchists were also a key factor in the Red Scare of 1919 and the raids led by Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer. Fanning the flames of xenophobia already stirred by WWI, Palmer used the bombings as an excuse to go after “reds” of all stripes, partic­ ularly if they were foreign-born, and he deported 249 resident aliens. Palmer’s recruitment of a young John Edgar Hoover from the Library of Congress to help with the investigations laid the groundwork for Hoover’s FBI. These summaries don’t begin to name all the colorful characters involved, but most of them show up in the Haymarket sections of Guma’s play — everyone from department store mogul Marshall Field to muckraking journalist Henry Demarest Lloyd to the accused anarchists. Guma makes one character the focus of the action, and luckily she’s the most interesting: Lucy Parsons, the African-American wife of fire­ brand anarchist orator Albert

Parsons, one of the four men exe­ cuted. An equal partner of Albert’s both in marriage and in activism, Lucy led the unsuccessful fight to free her husband and continued speaking out after his death. The play begins with a 66-yearold Lucy under interrogation by a federal agent on Nov. 11, 1919, the anniversary of her husband’s death. She’s been picked up as part of the Palmer Raids. Guma has no hard evidence that she was interro­ gated at that time, but it’s a fair assumption. And the device of the interview allows for segues into Haymarket flashbacks while also providing, in the older Lucy, an enjoyable protagonist. Two actresses, Sandra Gartner and Sheila Collins, did excellent work portraying Lucy in her older and younger years, respectively, with Gartner particularly effective in capturing both the sass and the sadness of the character. However, the play returns too often to the interrogation motif, and when J. Edgar himself steps in to harangue Lucy, he’s so broadly written that it’s like watching two opposing mouthpieces, not an interaction between real human beings. Only when he takes the questioning to Uncomfortably per­ sonal places — asking about Lucy’s son, a Spanish-American War vet whom she committed to a mehtal institution — do we get into more interesting territory. There are still-untapped possibili­ ties rtd,(ek|Jlofe dri the chafadter of Lucy, ahd Guma would do well to pull back on some of the political rhetoric and go deeper into the personal details. A number of other characters capture our attention because of their particular quirks or multiple dimensions. Socialist newspaper editor and Haymarket defendant1 August Spies is equally contemp­ tuous of Marxism and capitalism; Ruth Wallman, in a nice example of gender-blind casting, was humorously flinty in the role. Roger Dodge made the most of his moments as the grandstanding prosecutor. Wayne Martens under­ played nicely as both iiber-detec­ tive Alan Pinkerton and defense attorney “Captain” Black. Throughout, the ensemble was effective in establishing context, whether as cheering crowds or carousing barflies, and Boardman consistently made astute staging choices. Special credit to light and sound designers Brad Buder and Steve Osterlund, whose contribu­ tions made a real case for the poten­ tial of the script as a radio drama. Whatever happens to Inquisitions, it’s inarguably timely now, as the contradictory demands of national security and civil liber­ ties are once more at odds. Toward the end of the play Lucy says, “We’re all so fragile. How can we make a government that isn’t?” I asked Guma the same question in an interview after the performance. His response: “We can try.” In recasting historical events in a form that can illuminate these questions, he’s making an effort that’s worthy of further attention* ®

STORY & IMAGE MARC AWODEY

he landscape of Addison County has long been admired by locals and visitors alike. Now four artists have created a Middlebury gallery exclusively dedicated to it. Painters Douglas Lazarus, Jake Geer and Robert Popick and photographer Trent Campbell opened the Art Studio Gallery last weekend. It is located in a house built in 1787 by another painter — that is, Gamaliel Painter, a captain in the Revolutionary War. Painter was also a founder of Middlebury College and a delegate to the con­ vention of 1777 that declared Vermont an independent republic. Today his old house is a beautifully restored wood-frame Cape at 7 Seymour Street, just a few dozen yards from the heart of the village. The Art Studio Gallery foursome has ideal surroundings upon which to lavish their aesthetic affections. Addison County boasts some of the most dramatic views of the Champlain Valley, as well as tidy dairy

-Cr the only galleries I know of that specifical­ ly celebrates the locale in which it is situ­ ated.” He probably should have acknowledged various galleries in, say, Provincetown, Santa Fe and Paris; nevertheless, Middlebury certainly deserves to be added to that list. It’s also a popular destination for leaf peepers, fly fishermen and well-heeled alums of the college — another plus for the gallery’s location. If there is a new idea associated with Art Studio Gallery, it might be faith in the premise that a group of artists can get along well enough to mind their own store. It’s not uncommon for craftspeople to have full-time galleries attached to their studios, but few fine artists are humble enough to take that approach. Lazarus, Geer, Popick and Campbell are all highly skilled and well established in their genres, yet they are working together rather than in competition. They appear to genuinely

respect each other and are co-promoting each other’s work. That’s a breath of fresh air also worth celebrating. Photographer Trent Campbell estimates that over the last 10 years he has traveled 30,000 miles crisscrossing Addison County — whose area is 818 square miles — in his quest for engaging images.

Besides his fine-art work, he has logged miles as a photojournalist for the Addison County Independent. He has both color and black-and-white work in the gallery. “Spring Snow” portrays a bicycle lying on the ground covered by the white stuff. Campbell has focused on the back wheel, frame and seat with a sophisticated composition of askew triangles and semicircles. About two inches of damp, clinging snow enshroud the bicycle, making its details loom large over the soft white background. The vibrant colors of “Water Fall” are a startling contrast to the black and white of “Spring Snow.” The water is an electric blue, and a crimson maple leaf floats on the water’s placid surface. The photos title is a puckish bit of irony; Campbell’s reference to fall means very late in autumn, as the dark reflections of totally denuded trees are seen as sil­ houettes beneath the bright red leaf. Although Lazarus bristles at being compared to modern photorealists, his paintings display the same sort of exactitude for which urban photoreal­ ists like Richard Estes are known. Lazarus might prefer to be compared to 19th-century realists, such as Thomas Eakens, who were ostensibly less reliant on photography. However, since the advent of the camera obscura 400 years ago, mechanical tech­ niques have assisted the rendition of realism. Lazarus has attained the same degree o f accuracy in many of his works, regardless of how he achieved it. “Swimming Hole, New Haven” has a no-nonsense approach to light that is razor-sharp and has none of the romantic impulses found in neoimpres­ sionist work. The bathers in “Swimming Hole” are likewise completely naturalistic. Lazarus is supreme­ ly confident in rendering the effects of light on water and has earned an international reputation for it. In 2001 Waterways Trust Scotland enlisted him to complete a series of oils examining that country’s canals. Last year he was commissioned to complete a series of views of New York’s historic Erie Canal as it appears today. Although Popick’s “View of Thompson’s Point” portrays a bit of Chittenden County real estate, it was no doubt captured from a vantage point in Addison County. He’s been painting in the

Champlain Valley for more than 30 years and is a substantial watercolorist. “Thompson’s Point” is a large-scale watercolor with superb transitions of intensity. The foreground is somewhat dark, punc­ tuated by patches of light in meadows and on a farmhouse. The lake has a whitish glimmer, and the Adirondacks recede through successive layers of atmosphere in aerial perspective. “Fifth Season” is a smaller piece, a wetland in early spring with a meandering stream and a few tenacious birds coasting overhead. Popick accurate­ ly describes the earthy hues of mud and brown grass without overstating the dreariness of Vermont’s “fifth season.” When Geer was discharged from the Marine Corps four decades ago, he enrolled in Middlebury College. He graduated with a fine arts degree in 1968 and began painting scenes of the Champlain Valley while also working as a graphic designer. Landscape painting has been his sole occupation since 1992. He seems to have a particular affinity for the geometric angles of rural architecture — basically barns. He also has a wry sense of humor, as demonstrated in “Paint Sale Barn.” This painting is practically a geometric abstraction; the barn has been distilled into a series of triangles, squares and rectangles. The paint-sale reference denotes Geer’s clashing harmony of reds above and blues below. A judicious use of grays and blacks serves to flatten the painting. “High Noon” is a more naturalistic aggregation of barn, sheds and silos. The midday sunlight throws shadows across the roofs and creates a series of rhomboid shapes, each with a slightly different tonality. Art Studio Gallery intends to exhibit only the work of Lazarus, Geer, Popick and Campbell. That means it is devoted to high quality, artistically con­ servative work. True to its allegiance to Addison County, the gallery already has a nonprofit fundraising event planned for later this month. These guys are not revolutionaries, but like the Painter who occupied 7 Seymour Street two cen­ turies ago, they are community-minded and laying the foundation for a promising future. ®

Rev. William Sioane Coffin, of the most prominent antiwar activists of the Vietnam era, has a life one friend describes as “saturated” and another calls exemplary.” A conversation with 78-year-old Strafford resident makes clear why both terms apply. Born into the American aris­ tocracy, Coffin has been a World War II U.S. Army officer, a CIA agent, a Peace Corps trainer, a freedom rider in the civil-rights movement, uni­ versity chaplain at Yale, pas­ tor of a progressive church in New York City, and national director of the nuclear weapons freeze campaign. He could have made a career as a concert pianist. He’s fluent in Russian and French and was once a strong runner and wrestler. Coffin has also been arrested numerous times and was tried in 1968 on federal charges of conspir­ ing to subvert the wartime military draft. Can a man with such a worldly and limelit back­ ground enjoy retirement in a drowsy Vermont village? “I love it here,” Coffin says, speech slightly slurred as the of a stroke he suffered three ago. “Vermont is so beautiful, know, nature gets more interestnearer you get to joining it.” though he now has trouble , Coffin still gets around.

THE UNDUIET AMERICAN Reverend William Sloane Coffin is still raising hell b y K e v in J. K e lle y '

Strafford’s green, accompanied by violinist Steve Nelson, a part-time Sharon resident and principal of the progressive Calhoun School on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. “Bill has become my best friend,” says Nelson, who met Coffin about 10 years ago. “Ours was originally a musical relationship, and it’s been richly marbled with politics, vodka, his life, my life and the lives of both our families.” Everyone who knows Coffin speaks of his warmth and vivacity. He’s still quick to laugh and has at least as many yarns to spin as any generalstore philosopher. There’s something characteristi­ cally Vermontish about Coffin’s character, even though he was raised in a penthouse apartment on Manhattan’s Upper East Side and was educated at Deerfield Academy, Phillips in Andover, a Swiss music conservatory and Yale University — the alma mater of his grandfather, father and uncle. “Bill has presence,” observes Vermont State Poet Grace Paley. “He knows who he is. And to me he is a friend and a great support as a writer.” Coffin has lived in Vermont full-time since 1990, but his connection to the state runs longer and deeper than that. After leaving his chaplain post at Yale in the 1970s, he stayed for a time in a room in a Strafford barn owned by his brother, Ned, who was then a local windmill builder. And in 1984, the twice-divorced Coffin married Randy Wilson, a Strafford native. “Bill is very much a member of the community here,” says his neighbor and sister-in-law Vi Coffin, the former chair of the Vermont Democratic Party. “In the good weather he spends time chatting with folks on the front porch.” As confirmation of his status as an adopted son of the Green Mountains, Coffin was recruited for a role in M an With a Plan, the 1996 film starring quintessential Vermont dairy farmer Fred Tuttle.

M illions of Americans of a certain age remember Coffin as one of the more straightlaced rebels of the 1960s, a clergyman who forcefully damned the war in Vietnam as immoral and unjust. He was a hero to doves and was hated by many hawks — an anonymous few of whom threatened to kill him for urging young men to turn in their draft cards and refuse induction into the U.S. armed forces.

lichael ® |p tr, now an English professor at the University of Nfew Hampshire, was one of those draft resisters inspired by Coffin’s always eloquent and sometimes elegant preaching style. “He’s really part of that old oral culture that’.s carried on mostly by black ministers,” Ferber says. “I think Bill is the best white preacher in America.” Ferber was indicted along with Coffin and three other protest leaders in the draft-resistance case that became one of the most celebrated war-related trials of the 1960s. Marcus Raskin, one of the so-called Boston Five, was acquitted by the trial jury, while two others — Ferber and pediatrician Benjamin Spock — were cleared by an appeals court. The charges against Coffin and the other remaining defendant, Mitchell Goodman, were quietly dropped by the government. This wasn’t Coffin’s first deliberate run-in with a law he believed sustained injustice. Seven years prior to his felony indictment, he was arrested for taking part in a “freedom ride” against Jim Crow public-transportation laws in the Deep South. It was an act of civil disobedience that set him firmly on the course toward social justice he continues to follow to this day. “You do something like that, and the next steps in your life are taken for you,” Coffin says of his 1961 arrest in Montgomery, Alabama, for the crime of attempting to integrate the whites-only waiting room of a bus depot. At that time, Coffin was in the third year of his tenure as university chaplain at Yale. Some stu­ dents, faculty, administrators and alumni were not at all pleased with his high-profile involvement in what many white Americans still viewed as a radical cause. Coffin’s subsequent leadership in the cam­ paign against conscription sparked a similar reac­ tion among those Yalies who believed their chaplain should stick to religion and not meddle in politics — particularly anti-establishment politics. Disagreements over the war were burning so hot by the late 1960s that they brought many long­ term friendships and collegial relationships to a fiery end. In his 1977 memoir, Once to Every M an, Coffin describes his falling out with an unnamed former CIA colleague. Even though Coffin was the godfather of the CIA man’s daughter, the agent grew furious when the minister visited his home after making an antiwar speech in Washington.

**-».

v “For a moment we just stared at eacn other,” Coffin writes. “Then I said quietly, ‘I supppse you’re looking at a traitor.’ “‘That sums it up perfectly,’ he snapped. ‘“Do you know what I’m looking at?’ “‘What?’ “‘A murderer,’ I said. ‘Now what are we going to do about it?”’ Nothing positive, as it turned out. The two part­ ed more enemies than friends. To one hard-partying Yalie of that era, who went on to considerable fame and no small fortune, Coffin’s politics seemed emblematic of the “selfrighteousness” and “intellectual superiority” of the East Coast liberals who were leading Ivy League institutions in discomfiting directions. According to a story in Newsweek that ran prior to the 2000 pres­ idential election, George W. Bush “bitterly recalled Coffin’s telling him, after his father had lost the 1964 Senate race in Texas to Ralph Yarborough, ‘I knew your father, and he lost to a better man.”’ For the most part, though. Coffin was at least tolerated throughout his tumultuous tenure at Yale, which ran from 1958 until 1976. “I was lucky to be supported by so many faculty and students and a president [Kingman Brewster] who were real believers in free speech,” he says now. A large number of Yale students were also fer­ vent followers of Coffin’s gospel. Although usually attired in jacket and tie, he achieved rock-star status on the campus and in the surrounding community. The Yale class of 1970 voted him the most admired figure in the world. “Walking through the streets of New Haven with William Sloane Coffin Jr. is like being in a movie about a small-town folk hero,” wrote the muckraking journalist Jessica Mitford, who was herself a colorful nonconformist. “People come up to shake his hand, students run after him with urgent questions, old folks stop their cars to call out, ‘Good luck, Bill!’ and, ‘Howdy, Reverend!”’ Coffin’s historic significance must not be under­ estimated, adds his one-time co-conspirator Marcus Raskin. Through his leadership of an early antiwar organization called Clergy and Laity Concerned About Vietnam, Coffin instigated “a symbolic struggle between church and state,” says Raskin, a founder of the progressive Institute for Policy »

Studies. “This was a very impor­ tant intervention. It showed that the state would have to see itself as only one contender for the lives of those young men who were facing the draft.” After leaving Yale in 1976, Coffin became pastor of Riverside Church on Manhat­ tan’s Upper West Side — not far from Union Theological Semi­ nary, where his religious vocation had begun to take shape three decades earlier. At Riverside, he continued applying his social gospel locally and international­ ly. In the latter half of the 1980s, Coffin was recruited to become national director of the nuclear weapons freeze campaign. “He was a natural for the job,” notes Raskin, who nomi­ nated Coffin for the post. “Bill has this kind of honest charisma that makes him effective — plus, he has the ability to show young people a truly exemplary life.”

conscience partly from his uncle, Henry Sloane Coffin, the presi­ dent of Union Theological Seminary in New York during the 1930s. Henry, whom his nephew describes as “a defender of the downtrodden” was also a catalyst for Bill’s decision to f enroll in Union in the late 1940s and begin his studies for the ministry. But before he could commit hilly to that vocation, Coffin had to choose between two intellectual poles: one occu­ pied by French existentialists such as Albert Camus, and the other identified with American theologians Reinhold Niehbuhr and Paul Tillich. While Camus and company “were asking all the right ques­ tions,” Coffin writes in his auto­ biography, “still I couldn’t help thinking that their answers lacked weight... The theologians seemed to be in touch with a deeper reali­ ty. They too knew what hell was about but in the depths of it they found a heaven which made more sense out of everything...” Religion was a part of Coffin’s upbringing, which was defined as much by wealth as by piety. His father, an heir to the W. & J. Sloane furniture fortune and president of the Metropol-itan Museum of Art, was a religious man, Coffin recalls. The elder man influenced his son despite his death when Bill was 9 years old. Coffins four years of service in the U.S. Army also helped con­ vince him to enter the seminary. The wartime experience of work­ ing as a liaison officer in central Europe with the Red Army “raised all sorts of issues about people s inhumanity toward oth­ ers, about the nature of courage, about the whole meaning of life,” Coffin says today. Perhaps out of gratitude for his privileged circumstances, the young Coffin was a ready and willing patriot who signed up to fight Hitler after graduating prep school at Andover in 1943. The same star-spangled fervor led Coffin to temporarily abandon

his theological studies to join the Central Intelligence Agency at the outbreak of fighting in Korea in 1950. The CIA had actually been eagerly recruiting the young man, who was much valued for his Russian language skills and famil­ iarity with the Soviet military. Coffin was already developing a progressive political perspective, and becoming a CIA officer was­ n’t seen at that time as a contra­ dictory career move. The fledg­ ling agency was being run mainly by well-educated liberals with blue-blood pedigrees similar to Coffins. “Far from reactionary,” he writes of the early CIA agents, “they believed that communism was essentially a parasite feeding on various diseases in the body politic caused by right-wing neg­ lect; in the long run, the answer to communism was probably some form of socialism.” Coffins assignment was to train Russian emigres for spy missions inside the Soviet Union. He helped prepare them for clandestine para­ chute drops into the Russian heart­ land, where they were to make their way to nearby cities, get work in strategic industries and transmit information to their CIA handlers via secret radios. It was a daring and doomed operation. Coffin thinks that all the agents he helped implant were likely discovered by the Soviets and did not survive long. He expresses no regrets — and few second thoughts — about this adventure in anticom­ munism. “I was a real cold war­ rior,” Coffin says of his 1950s worldview. “But I was also naive about my own government.” Some years after leaving the CIA in 1953, he came to see the agency for what it was: an instru­ ment o f covert American interven­ tion against left-wing nationalist governments or movements in Third World countries such as Iran, Guatemala, Lebanon and the

Dominican Republic. As U.S. mil­ itary involvement intensified in Vietnam in the early 1960s, Coffin realized that “this was no aberra­ tion; it was part of a pattern.” But drat epiphany did not drive Coffin to an anti-America*** isirtof the sort practiced by those New Leftists who waved Viet Cong flags at Washington rallies and styled themselves as Maoist revolutionaries. Despite his radical antiwar activities, which included a 1972 trip to the enemy capital of Hanoi to bring home a few American POWs, Coffin did not wholly renounce mainstream American political views. He simply redefined the terms of his commitment to the land of Jefferson, Lincoln and FDR. Recalling a speech he gave to a partly hostile audience at Auburn University in Alabama, Coffin says he showed it was possible to express principled opposition to the draft and to the war without becoming “strident or fanatical.” Asked recently to situate him­ self on the political spectrum, Coffin replied, “I’m a left-wing Democrat, I suppose.” Never more than that? Never a roman­ tic fling with Cuba? No, he says, because “socialism has a hard time dealing with man’s flaws.” At the same time, Coffin has gone where few other left-leaning Democrats ever venture: into direct confrontation with the law and its enforcers. Civil disobedi­ ence, he explains, “should not be used as a first resort; it’s more like a last resort.” Deciding whether to practice it “depends on your estimation of how evil the actions of your government are. I thought the Vietnam War was so wrong, was being waged so counter to American standards of decency, that it felt right to me to engage in civil disobedience.” Besides, selectively breaking the law is not the same as under­

mining civil order, Coffin argues. “If you accept your punishment, you’re actually upholding, not destroying, the legal structure.” No plaster saint, Coffin will hurl angry profanities when asked his view of current U.S. behavior toward the rest of the world. “Oh, shit, were being run by a bunch of people with messianic preten­ sions,” he says in regard to Presi­ dent Bush and the Attorney General he calls “Ayatollah Ash­ croft.” The hypocrisy of America’s born-again rulers “would make Jesus puke,” Coffin asserts. The Reverend more typically seeds his remarks with biblical and literary allusions. To critique American hegemony, he turns to the New Testament for a caution­ ary metaphor. “Don’t people remember it was the Devil who tempted Jesus Christ with unlimit­ ed power and wealth? That’s exact­ ly what Washington now enjoys — unrivaled power and wealth.” Not surprisingly, Coffin opposed the war against Iraq and, in his view, the United States’ military success doesn’t equate with political triumph. “This war will have devastating consequences for this country,” Coffin predicts. “It’s as Burke said,” he adds, quoting the 18thcentury British political philoso­ pher: “‘When victory is won, our ruin will be complete.’” But disenchantment with this administration has not prompted any crisis in Coffin’s personal patriotism. “There are three kinds of patriots,” he explains in charac­ teristically epigrammatic fashion: “those who express uncritical love for their country; those who are loveless critics of their country; and those who carry on a lover’s quarrel with their country.” As if there were any doubt as to which category Coffin assigns himself, the last relationship, he adds, is “a reflection of God’s own lover’s quarrel with humanity.” ®

incent Carter’s coming-of-age novel Such Sweet Thunder got some positive press when it debuted last month. Kirkus Reviews — the advance guard of book reviewers — dubbed it “a diamond in the rough.” This would be good news for any book. But the fact that Carters book STORY received any press at all is significant. Few CATHY RESMER people ever thought the manuscript would appear on bookstore shelves, least of all IMAGE Carter himself. JEB Typically the author is a book’s biggest WALLACE- booster, a tireless advocate expected to sol­ BRODEUR dier on disregarding rejection after rejec­ tion. But for Such Sweet Thunder, the road to print ran in the opposite direction: The book reached bookstore shelves thanks to the intercession of Chip Fleischer, an inquisitive and determined publisher at South Royalton’s Steerforth Press. Carter, an African-American expatriate, finished the book in 1963 and he and his literary agent started shopping it around. Seven years and 11 publishers later, Carter finally gave up and asked his agent to return his manuscript. He died in 1983 at the age of 58, his magnum opus unpublished. It probably would have remained that way if it weren’t for a fateful coincidence. Like Carter, Fleischer grew up in Kansas City, Missouri. Three years ago, a friend of Fleischer’s stumbled upon a copy of Carter’s 1973 memoir — his only pub­ lished work — while browsing in a used bookstore. Because of the Kansas City connection, he sent Fleischer an email rec­ ommending The Bern Book: The Record o f a Voyage o f the M ind. “When I went to get a copy of The Bern Book, it was just to read it,” says Fleischer. “It was not with any expectation as a pub­

V

lisher. It was just as a Kansas City boy.” Fleischer liked The Bern Book. He appreciated Carter’s quirky style. But what really piqued his interest was an aside in the book’s introduction. Herb Lottman, then the international correspondent for Publisher’s Weekly, mentioned Carter’s unpublished work. “Herb made it very clear that Carter had written a great novel,” Fleischer explains. “As a publisher, I thought, ‘What the heck happened to it?”’ Intrigued, Fleischer contacted Lottman, who told him the bad news — since Carter’s death, Lottman had purged his files. He didn’t have the manuscript and he didn’t have contact information for Carter’s friends or family. The novel had disappeared. ..-v Fleischer decided to find it. Encouraged by the publisher’s enthusiasm, Lottman agreed to help. He spread the word through publishing circles that Fleischer was interested in Carter’s long-lost novel. Meanwhile, Fleischer concentrated on Kansas City, hoping to locate the late author’s relatives. He searched records in the public library. He scoured the archives of the Kansas City Star. He found nothing. “I was beginning to lose faith,” he says, “when out of the blue we got this fax from Herb.” In the fall of 2001, a friend of a friend of a friend of Lottman’s provided a phone number for Liselotte Haas, Carter’s longtime companion. The phone number was supposed to be for a Swiss yoga institute, where 69-yearold Haas is an instructor. Fleischer asked Steerforth’s foreign-rights director Helga Schmidt to call, thinking that the person who answered might not speak English. But the number was for Haas’ own apart-

The novel w asn’t what publishers were looking for in “Negro Literature” in the ’60s: It’s not a protest novel. Carter's hefty, 538-page tome tells the story o f his 1930s Kansas C ity boyhood. The narra­ tive revolves around the intellec­ tual, sexual and artistic awaken­ ing o f Am erigo Jones, the authors fictional stand-in. Amerigo is a quiet, awkward boy who possesses a lively imagina­ tion. He lives with his young par­ ents, Viola and Rutherford, in an

ing Such Sweet Thunder, he quickly developed a deeper appreciation of Carter’s achievement. He recog­ nized immediately the novel’s his­ torical significance, which review­ ers have also pointed out. Amerigo’s segregated, Jim Crow world, says Kirkus, is “too seldom seen in American fiction.” »

H is regional dialect crackles with energy: “I was standin’ pat in ma gray bo-back, Jack!” says Ruther­ ford,” .. .Me an’ your momma was layin’ down a Camel-W alk while you was home sleep!” Fleischer also sensed that Carter had composed his prose with an instinctive rhythm, derived from a deep appreciation o f the jazz music he heard as a child. He frequently uses sounds or words to shift from one scene to the next, most notably the word “boom,” which sometimes refers to actual noises and some­ times to the psychic reverbera­ tions o f Am erigo’s epiphanies. Carter also repeats certain phras­ es like a coda, enhancing their meaning with each repetition. Carter sampled from a less fam iliar tradition as well: Euro­ pean Modernism.

A distant, abstract rage fille d his chest, his th ro a t... The specula­ tion fo r w hich there were no words catapulted him once again into the j burn in g atmcpphereKger, w ith particles o f sound a n d cb a n d m ovem ent, a n d caused him to lose a ll awareness o f him self, o f his beginning or o f his end. W hat h a d once been his ears were now vol­ um es fille d w ith sound, w h at had been his eyes were orbits fille d w ith light, w h a t h a d been his body a configuration o f driven snow, fin a lly com ing to rest, a burning droplet upon a w rinkled sheet, exposed to the lig h t o f day.

Violence, poverty and racism saturate Am erigo’s life, but much o f his struggle to define him self occurs inside his own head. The rich, lyrical prose with which Carter describes this struggle mesmerized Fleischer. He decided not to tinker with it. Besides deleting a handful of adjectives from the first 100 pages, Fleischer and Steerforth’s editorial director Robin Dutcher left Carter’s manuscript mostly as they found it. “Really great jazz artists are steeped in musical the­ ory that allows them to im pro­ vise without just m aking noise,” Fleischer explains. “Carter knew what he was doing.” Fleischer did make one very noticeable change, however. Carter called the manuscript The P rim ary Colors. Fleischer didn’t care for the title. Since Carter dedicated the book to Duke Ellington, the publisher felt it would be appropriate to rename it Such Sw eet Thunder, honoring the Ellington/B illy Strayhorn tune by that name. The composi­ tion was a tribute to Shakespeare, and the phrase is from A M id ­ sum m er N ig h ts D ream . The asso­ ciation makes perfect sense to Fleischer, given the book’s

reliance on jazz, and on European literary sensibilities. Indeed, Carter’s penchant for detail-heavy, stream-of-consciousness w riting, combined with his intimate rendering of African-Am erican domestic life, produces a uniquely com pelling Bildungsrom an. P ublisher’s W eekly

acknowledged this achievement in a starred review, calling the book “a marvelous blend o f jazz rhythms and high literary tradi­ tion.” Ironically, it was probably this unique fusion o f styles that kept the novel from being pub­ lished in the ’60s.

Fleischer doesn't know for sure why Carter’s manuscript lan­ guished in obscurity for 30 years. W hen he visited Haas last O cto­ ber, he discovered the writer’s correspondence with his agent, Toni Strassman. It revealed that, though several publishers had expressed interest, they were con­ cerned about the book’s length and its reliance on heavily accented dialect. Carter took these criticism s to heart. He made significant changes, but eventually turned his creative energies toward visual art and lost interest in thd project. W hen Carter shelved the book in 1970, the revised version had yetoto be seen by the publishers who had suggested the changes. .. ^ Perhaps Carter sensed that dierejwec^Qther unspqkeajrea- ,- 1 sons for the book’s rejderiorr.' ’ : * Fleischer speculates that the author’s race played a role. The novel wasn’t what publishers were looking for in “Negro Literature” in the ’60s: It’s not a protest novel. Despite his deprivations, Amerigo finds much joy in his surroundings, as when he savors an evening in the alley: I hope it never changes, he tho ught... H e looked fro m the height o f his contentm ent into his alley. From the m any doors a n d windows, fro m the host o f fa m ilia r faces on the porches rose a gentle sw ell o f ta lk a n d laughter inter­ spersed w ith m usic — fro m a radio, a Victrola, fro m someone singing or playing a g u ita r or playing a har­ monica; accented by the sound o f babies crying, a glass shattering against a floor, o f autom obiles w hizzing up a n d dow n the boule­ vard, up a n d dow n the avenue. I t fille d his eyes a n d ears w ith the sweetest sound he h a d ever heard. ”

“Carter conveys a certain love and generosity o f spirit towards this place,” notes Fleischer. “He provides a much more complete and relaxing picture o f everyday life than a book with an agenda and a [political] purpose would.” He suspects that publishers m ight havp deemed the book unmarketable for this reason. Most undergraduate English majors are fam iliar with another victim o f this publishing bias. Zora Neale Hurston’s highly acclaimed novel T heir Eyes Were W atching G od suffered a sim ilar fate. Hurston’s love story, like Carter’s novel, features a protago­ nist who struggles with some­ thing other than oppression.


SEVEN DAYS I may 07-14, 2003 I feature 35A

Both Am erigo and Janie interact prim arily with other black char­ acters. Neither book directly addresses a white audience, not even confrontationally. Hurstons novel was published in 1937 and out o f print by the ’60s. Black male authors like Richard W right derided it for its lack o f attention to racism and black-white relations. Though she enjoyed some success, Hurston died poor and was buried in an unmarked grave. In the ’70s, Alice Walker and other black female writers demanded Hurston’s work be brought back into print and included in the African-Am erican literary canon. Unlike Hurston, however, Carter has few well-known champions. H is book is not an accessible, plot-driven love story like Hurston’s, which enjoys a healthy follow ing among black women, feminists, women’s stud­ ies majors and folklorists. And Carter alienated black writers o f his time who pleaded with him to return to the States. H is deci­ sion to remain in Switzerland, focusing on art instead o f activism, caused his name to drop from the radar screen.

Fleischer and Steerforth have some experience with literary revivals. Ten years ago the fledg­ ling press bought the rights to the novels o f Dawn Powell, a New York novelist o f the ’20s and ’30s whose work had been out o f print for years. Influential writers like Edm und W ilson and Gore V idal praised Powell, and the new editions sparked enthu­ siastic critical attention, though it never translated into w ild financial success. Because o f risks involved, the Vermont publisher’s independ­ ence — its ability to continue publishing quirky books — is precarious. The company suf­ fered losses in 2001 and 2002 . It’s not surprising that not every­ one at Steerforth has been as enthused as Fleischer. Michael Moore, one o f the company’s senior editors and the conduit through which Steerforth acquired the Powell books, was doubtful. He recalls likin g Such Sw eet T hunder but having reser­ vations. “I thought it was proba­ bly an impossible publishing project,” says the 61-year-old editor. “I couldn’t imagine how we would get attention for it.

“Really great jazz artists are steeped in musical theory that allows them to improvise without just making noise. Carter knew what he was doing.” CHIP

FLEISCHER,

Carter’s absence from the U.S. affected Fleischer’s efforts as well. To garner attention for the proj­ ect, he sought blurbs from promi­ nent African-Americans. He had heard that Ellen W right, widow of author Richard W right, had read and liked the manuscript years ago. But when he contacted her she had no memory^ o fip He sent the bound galleys to several African-American writers. “I got a nice note from Toni Morrison’s assistant,’’ Fleischer recalls, but none of the writers he queried were w illing to comment. “It became very clear that the most besieged group in America is the group o f African-American intel­ lectuals. Unless a book is put in their hands by people they know and trust, they wont touch it.” Such Sw eet T hunder is an unlikely candidate for the best­ seller lists. It’s a risky publishing venture, and Fleischer’s enthusi­ asm has been absolutely crucial. As the publishing industry has become dominated by large cor­ porate publishing houses, fewer and fewer publishers have been w illing to pursue quality books with lim ited financial prospects. And dead authors are especially difficult to work with — they’re not available for rewrites, and they don’t do book tours.

PRESS

Unlike Dawn Powell, who had all o f these fans like Gore Vidal, this guy was pretty obscure.” But even Moore’s cautionary tone hasn’t dampened Fleischer’s passion for Carter’s book. “Even­ tually you just have to start painting the fence and having fun,” he says, alluding to the famous scene from Tom Sawyer, “and at some point, people w ill come along and say, ‘Hey, what are you doing? Can we join you?”’ So far, Fleischer’s strategy seems to have paid off. Thanks to the positive press, bookstore and library orders have surpassed the initial run o f 8000 copies. Steerforth has a second run scheduled. The book has also started to receive notice in the African-Am erican community. B lack Renaissance M agazine, New York University’s magazine of African-Am erican affairs, w ill print an excerpt in its next issue. Fleischer is pleased, not just because o f what this means for Steerforth, but because he feels he has rescued something worth saving. “You just feel at times the author’s speaking to you, for you and you alone to understand completely. That’s what I love most about this book.” ®

But most importandy, Fleischer was fascinated by Carters style. H is regional dialect crackles with energy: “I was standin’ pat in ma gray bo-back, Jack!” says Ruther­ ford,” .. .Me an’ your momma was layin’ down a Camel-W alk while you was home sleep!” Fleischer also sensed that Carter had composed his prose with an instinctive rhythm, derived from a deep appreciation o f the jazz music he heard as a child. He frequently uses sounds or words to shift from one scene to the next, most notably the word “boom,” which sometimes refers to actual noises and some­ times to the psychic reverbera­ tions o f Am erigo’s epiphanies. Carter also repeats certain phras­ es like a coda, enhancing their meaning with each repetition. Carter sampled from a less fam iliar tradition as well: Euro­ pean Modernism. Confronting the mysteries o f a world he is only beginning to comprehend, Amerigo is reminiscent o f Stephen Dedalus, the hero in James Joyce’s A P ortrait o f the

reliance on jazz, and on European literary sensibilities. Indeed, Carter’s penchant for detail-heavy, stream-of-consciousness w riting, combined with his intimate rendering o f African-Am erican domestic life, produces a uniquely com pelling

exposed to the lig h t o f day.

Bildungsrom an. P ublisher’s Weekly

acknowledged this achievement in a starred review, calling the book “a marvelous blend o f jazz rhythms and high literary tradi­ tion.” Ironically, it was probably this unique fusion o f styles that kept the novel from being pub­ lished in the ’60s.

Fleischer doesn't know for

sure why Carter’s manuscript lan­ guished in obscurity for 30 years. W hen he visited Haas last O cto­ ber, he discovered the writer’s correspondence with his agent, Toni Strassman. It revealed that, though several publishers had expressed interest, they were con­ cerned about the book’s length and its reliance on heavily accented dialect.

The beginning or o f his end. W hat h a d novel wasn’t what publishers were once been his ears were now vol­ looking for in “Negro Literature” um es fille d w ith sound, w h at h a d in the ’60s: It’s not a protest been his eyes were orbits fille d w ith novel.

The rich, lyrical prose with which Carter describes this struggle mesmerized Fleischer. He decided not to tinker with it. Besides deleting a handful o f adjectives from the first 100 pages, Fleischer and Steerforth’s editorial director Robin Dutcher left Carter’s manuscript mostly as they found it. “Really great jazz artists are steeped in musical the­ ory that allows them to im pro­ vise without just m aking noise,” Fleischer explains. “Carter knew what he was doing.” Fleischer did make one very noticeable change, however. Carter called the manuscript The P rim ary Colors. Fleischer didn’t care for the title. Since Carter dedicated the book to Duke Ellington, the publisher felt it would be appropriate to rename it Such Sw eet Thunder, honoring the Ellington/B illy Strayhorn tune by that name. The composi­ tion was a tribute to Shakespeare, and the phrase is from A M id ­ sum m er N ig h ts D ream . The asso­ ciation makes perfect sense to Fleischer, given the book’s

“Carter conveys a certain love and generosity o f spirit towards this place,” notes Fleischer. “He provides a much more complete and relaxing picture o f everyday life than a book with an agenda and a [political] purpose would.” He suspects that publishers m ight have deemed the book unmarketable for this reason. Most undergraduate English majors are fam iliar with another victim o f this publishing bias. Zora Neale Hurston’s highly acclaimed novel T heir Eyes Were W atching G od suffered a sim ilar fate. Hurston’s love story, like Carter’s novel, features a protago­ nist who struggles with some­ thing other than oppression.


SEVENDAYS I may 07-14, 2003 I feature 35A

Both Am erigo and Janie interact prim arily with other black char­ acters. Neither book directly addresses a white audience, not even confrontationally. Hurstons novel was published in 1937 and out o f print by the ’60s. Black male authors like Richard W right derided it for its lack o f attention to racism and black-white relations. Though she enjoyed some success, Hurston died poor and was buried in an unmarked grave. In the ’70s, Alice Walker and other black female writers demanded Hurston’s work be brought back into print and included in the African-Am erican literary canon. Unlike Hurston, however, Carter has few well-known champions. H is book is not an accessible, plot-driven love story like Hurston’s, which enjoys a healthy follow ing among black women, feminists, women’s stud­ ies majors and folklorists. And Carter alienated black writers o f his time who pleaded with him to return to the States. H is deci­ sion to remain in Switzerland, focusing on art instead o f activism, caused his name to drop from the radar screen.

Fleischer and Steerforth have some experience with literary revivals. Ten years ago the fledg­ ling press bought the rights to the novels o f Dawn Powell, a New York novelist o f the ’20s and ’30s whose work had been out o f print for years. Influential writers like Edm und W ilson and Gore Vidal praised Powell, and the new editions sparked enthu­ siastic critical attention, though it never translated into w ild financial success. Because o f risks involved, the Vermont publisher’s independ­ ence — its ability to continue publishing quirky books — is precarious. The company suf­ fered losses in 2001 and 200 2 . It’s not surprising that not every­ one at Steerforth has been as enthused as Fleischer. Michael Moore, one o f the company’s senior editors and the conduit through which Steerforth acquired the Powell books, was doubtful. He recalls likin g Such Sw eet T hunder but having reser­ vations. “I thought it was proba­ bly an impossible publishing project,” says the 61-year-old editor. “I couldn’t imagine how we would get attention for it.

“Really great jazz artists are steeped in musical theory that allows them to improvise without just making noise, Carter knew what he was doing.” CHIP

FLEISCHER,

Carter’s absence from the U .S. affected Fleischer’s efforts as well. To garner attention for the proj­ ect, he sought blurbs from promi­ nent African-Americans. He had heard that Ellen W right, widow of author Richard W right, had read and liked the manuscript years ago. But when he contacted her she had no memoryvo fif, He sent the bound galleys to several African-American writers. “I got a nice note from Toni Morrison’s assistant,” Fleischer recalls, but none o f the writers he queried were w illing to comment. “It became very clear that the most besieged group in America is the group of African-American intel­ lectuals. Unless a book is put in their hands by people they know and trust, they won’t touch it.” Such Sw eet T hunder is an unlikely candidate for the best­ seller lists. It’s a risky publishing venture, and Fleischer’s enthusi­ asm has been absolutely crucial. As the publishing industry has become dominated by large cor­ porate publishing houses, fewer and fewer publishers have been w illing to pursue quality books with lim ited financial prospects. And dead authors are especially difficult to work with — they’re not available for rewrites, and they don’t do book tours.

PRESS

Unlike Dawn Powell, who had all o f these fans like Gore Vidal, this guy was pretty obscure.” But even Moore’s cautionary tone hasn’t dampened Fleischer’s passion for Carter’s book. “Even­ tually you just have to start painting the fence and having fun,” he says, alluding to the famous scene from Tom Sawyer, “and at some point, people w ill come along and say, ‘Hey, what are you doing? Can we join you?”’ So far, Fleischer’s strategy seems to have paid off. Thanks to the positive press, bookstore and library orders have surpassed the initial run o f 8000 copies. Steerforth has a second run scheduled. The book has also started to receive notice in the African-Am erican community. B lack Renaissance M agazine, New York University’s magazine of African-Am erican affairs, w ill print an excerpt in its next issue. Fleischer is pleased, not just because o f what this means for Steerforth, but because he feels he has rescued something worth saving. “You just feel at times the author’s speaking to you, for you and you alone to understand completely. That’s what I love most about this book.” ®

Pig Lifting "Pick up a pig every day from its birth and you can do it when it's full grown," someone told my grandfather, and no doubt meant the pig would let him, but in three years my grandfather increased his already powerful body such that he could lift the now huge hog. Like Milon of Croton, who lifted a calf every day and carted it around, and was able to lift the ox when full grown, who won the Greek Olympics' wrestling laurel six times. My grandfather did not wrestle men, but, as a farmer, animals and the ground itself till he was pinned by a tractor and counted out If he had lifted every part as made and assembled, could he have lifted machine and death like the pig we see in pictures on his lap in chairs, cradled in his arms, draped large across his back. In my grandfather's final rendering he could snatch nothing from old weighty death, and left behind only scraps like these. LELAND KINSEY "Lifting a Pig" appears in Sledding on Hospital H ill, David R. Godine Publisher, 2003.

ARTWORK Detail from "Aquatic (green quilt)" by Ethan Murrow

PHOTO Matthew Thorsen

than Murrow is a very hard worker. He has had three significant shows in the Burlington area over the last few years, and each has presented predom­ inantly new work. He also appears to be fearless and always ready to consid­ er new issues. The 19 pieces of Murrow’s present exhibition at the Doll-Anstadt Gallery suggest he’s actu­ ally developing two distinct bodies o f work simultaneously. It’s a move lesser painters m ight fear to make, and more established ones m ight be too com­ fortable to contemplate. Yet while the North Carolina artist — who used to live in Burlington — continues to produce semi-abstract oil paintings rooted in the landscape, he is also pursuing a series o f energetic works on paper that are refining a pri­ vate iconography. The latter works are less accessible than the landscapes but just as substantive. Murrow’s land­ scapes are certainly commercially and artistically successful. Although he relies more heavily on horizon lines, his paintings are like rainy, cloudy Richard Diebenkorn highway land­ scapes from the early 1960s. “Nature W riting I I ” gives a throughthe-windshield view o f a stormy inter­ state steeped in low clouds. Indistinct woods crowd the guardrails, and a misted mountain looms over the woods. No other traffic appears on the

highway. The scene’s proportions are totally naturalistic, but the execution is rich with sinewy gestural lines. Water is a recurring theme in Murrow’s work, sometimes in the form o f rain, sometimes mist and clouds or rivers. “Carved I ” is the stunning portrait o f a cloudy sky. Effervescent shades o f silver, gold and raw umber seem to press colorful fur­ rows into the ground, wending toward a low horizon line. The 8 -foot-long charcoal-on-paper “Water Futures (M irage)” presents a roughly aerial view o f a bending river about to cut a new course through the land. Murrow’s lines have the density o f a B rillo pad. The left side o f the drawing is blank, suggesting that the river’s path is ultim ately unknowable. “Water Futures” is situated halfway between the two bodies o f work Murrow presents here. In his artist’s statement accompanying the show he writes, “M y work is rooted in the fluid and cyclical models o f water, land and atmosphere. Understanding the ways in which the patterns o f the earth and humans are linked broadens my view o f where I stand.” That linkage appears to raise ecological concerns that find voice in his works on paper. “O il (Yellow Q u ilt)” and “Aquatic (Green Q u ilt)” are large-scale works on paper that have been sewn together t;v

from smaller components. The green “quilt” combines irregular paper sizes and has some completely black pieces. Small landscapes akin to the monu­ mental “Water Futures” are inter­ spersed with the painted and stained sheets o f black and pale green. Other hues are used sparingly in the piece as well — scribbles o f light-blue pastel and drips and splashes of watery red. The yellow “quilt” is comprised of a grid o f rectangular, sketchbook-sized sheets. Most are solid yellows o f vary­ ing intensity, and a few o f the sheets are striped. Murrow has included his most iconographic forms within this piece. A pitted, spherical planet form looks like something from a sci-fi comic. Other shapes look like blown up seeds or viruses. References to envi­ ronmental degradation? Genetic engi­ neering? Murrow’s style is not “in your face,” and he has no problem letting viewers speculate on the possibilities. To paraphrase his statement, he is broadening his view o f where he stands in this exhibition. As Murrow develops the-two bodies o f work, one approach may dominate the other as time goes by. That m ight indicate a maturing step for this constantly reemerging artist. It is to be hoped that the inquisitive nature o f his work w ill remain a constant. ®

T ROME ALONE With mom and dad an ocean away, Duff cuts loose in the Eternal City.

hank heaverf for little girls, as Maurice Chevalier used to warble. Where the legendary showman celebrated the delightful ways they grow up, I am at the moment appreciative o f the way they show up. Namely, in the nick of time to provide an alternative to the latest X -M en. M y wife is worried about me. M y 12-year-old son is incredulous. Even the theater manager thought I was kid­ ding when he waved me in and asked what I was seeing as he whipped X 2 tickets out to hundreds o f teenage boys like a blackjack dealer on speed. There’s a perfectly logical and total­ ly innocent explanation: The fact is, I made a decision sometime between the third B atm an and the Shaquille O ’ Neal superclunker Steel that I simply wasn’t going to any more movies made from comics. I don’t read comic books. W hy would I want to watch them? Sure, the Superm an movies were fun at the time, and the first B atm an or two were interesting. Hollywood knows a good thing when it beats one into the ground, though, and subse­ quent motion pictures adapted from comics seemed designed prim arily to spare geeky Sega-generation teens the burden o f actually reading. The Crow was followed by The P hantom , then Spaw n and then Blade. More recently, certified film-school graduates found their expensive skills squandered on instantly forgettable stuff such as From H ell, U nbreakable, D aredevil and B u lletp ro o fM onk, not to mention Crow and Blade sequels. M en in Black was

occasionally entertaining, but its sequel made the “ 10 worst” list o f a number of the nation’s critics last year. They’re loud, they’re usually long, and they blare the same explosions, effects, fights, goofball baddies and perennially pubescent sensibility. W hy anyone with a life would bother is beyond me. So you can imagine my sense o f dread as the weekend approached and it looked as though X 2 would be its only new major release. It was like staring into the fiery pit. But then, as I say, thank heaven. Or, more accurately, thank Disney. The L izzie M cG uire M ovie brings the Disney Channel’s popular series to the big screen along with its effervescent young star, H ilary Duff. Evidently the picture picks up where this season ended, with M cGuire graduating from junior high and embarking, with a smattering o f friends, on a class trip to Rome. Along for the ride: Ashlie Brillault as a former best friend who’s inexplica­ bly turned on her; Adam Lamberg as Gordo, her self-described “guy best friend”; and “M A D T V ” alum Alex Borstein as the chaperone, who’s a scene-stealing fusion o f Janeane Garofalo and George “The Anim al” Steel. Once in the Eternal City, it isn’t long before the young woman’s atten­ tion is diverted from tours o f ancient ruins. A young Italian pop star catches sight o f her one day and explains that she’s the spitting image o f his former

partner, who has just walked out on the hugely successful duo. He asks to spend time with her while she’s in town and, smitten to the max, she concocts a series o f ruses to get excused from daily ruin patrol. Together the young couple shares a PG Roman holiday, and M cGuire is offered the opportunity to realize a lifelong dream. She’s always fantasized about living the life o f a pop singer, and her new friend just happens to be one diva down with a major appear­ ance fast approaching. W ill she impersonate his partner, finding love and stardom in the process, or w ill she find that Gordo’s right about the guy — that he’s really an Italian rapscallion with ulterior motives? Finding out, believe it or not, is only half the fun o f this thoroughly charming — albeit hardly ground­ breaking — comedy. Fans o f the T V show are guaranteed to be fans o f the film . The remarkable thing is, parents are likely to be nearly as charmed as their progeny. The dialogue is unexpectedly funny, the cast competent and likable. As M TV-age fairy tales go, few can match this one’s infectious energy and good feeling. And then there’s Duff, without a doubt the most deft and fetching young female entertainer ever to bear the name o f Homer Simpson’s favorite beer. Behind the camera or in front of it, there’s no shortage of talent in L izzie M cG uire , but the truth is, it’s the H ilary D u ff movie all the way. ®

eripheral characters drop like mayflies in

Italian for Beginners, but the Danish

movie is not a murder mystery. Although drug addiction and madness are also part o f the equation, this is a gentle screwball comedy that never dwells too long on its own sense o f melancholy. W riter-director Lone Scherfig’s picture — with M iddlebury College screenings at 3 and 8 p.m. Saturday in Dana Auditorium — sug­ gests ordinary people are exceedingly bizarre and become even more so when love is involved.

Please Note: Due to new ownership, Gift Certificats purchased before February 2003 will only be honored up until 5 /17/03

seems a whole lot easier than a messy life. Thanks to Shakespeare’s Danes are famous for their brooding. W hile almost everyone in the ensemble is frozen by self-doubt, Scherfig reveals their funnier foibles w ithout ever triv i­ alizing genuine anguish. She is the first female film m aker to emerge from the Dogm e pack, w hich has created w ork as bleak as Lars von Trier’s and as bittersweet as Soren Kragh-Jacobsen’s For Scherfig, the Italian classes provide M editer­ ranean warmth that balances the Scandinavian cool o f her cinem atic lonely-hearts club.

able light, no soundtrack music, hand­ held cameras and actual locations rather than constructed sets. The action takes place in a drab Copenhagen suburb, so it’s a recipe for realism. The plot, howev­ er, follows a kind o f fantasy logic. Andreas, portrayed by Anders W. Berthelsen, is a young pastor temporarily

Lone Scherfig's picture suggests ordinary people are exceedingly bizarre and become even more so when love is involved replacing an older cleric who has gone o ff the deep end. Turns out both men are recent widowers — the first o f several odd coincidences. The church serves a com m unity dominated by a sports stadi­ um and its adjacent restaurant, where Jorgen works with the ill-tempered Finn. These roles are inhabited by Peter Ganzler and Lars Kaalund, respectively. The terribly shy Jorgen is smitten with G iulia, an Italian cook played by Sara Indrio Jensen. Macho Finn falls into lust with the owner o f a local hair salon, Karen (Ann Eleonora Jorgensen, who bears a passing resemblance to Frances M cDorm and). She takes care o f her nasty, morphine-addled mother, much as bakery clerk Olym pia (Anette Stovelbaek) must tend to her equally unpleasant father. W hen the two nightmarish parental figures suddenly die w ithin a few days o f each other, the surviving daugh­ ters discover a secret about their common birthright. Meanwhile, these confused folks all attend night school to study Italian. The course is taught by a man named — what else? —- Marcello, who suffers a fatal heart attack in front o f the class. As in H B O ’s “Six Feet Under,” death often

Last week's announcement that M errill Jarvis w ill reopen a renovated Nickelodeon on M ay 23 had some peo­ ple scratching their heads about what he plans to call the downtown Burlington venue: The Roxy. But this is a m oniker with historic significance. In 1927 impresario Samuel L . Rothapfel — nicknamed Roxy — built a movie palace at the corner o f 50th Street and Seventh Avenue in Manhattan. Heralded as “the cathedral o f the motion picture,” the $10 m illion theater had Gothic-style windows, statuary, rose-andgold murals, an orchestra pit and 6214 velvet-covered seats. The Roxy’s opening night drew celebri­ ties such as Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd and Gloria Swanson — star o f the feature that premiered, Th is silent film centers on a yogi who, recog­ nizing two people he wronged in an earlier incarnation, warns them o f their fate this time around. Surely, it’s long overdue for a Hollywood remake. Rothapfel went on to become one o f John D . Rockefeller’s partners — Roxy and Rocky — in constructing the sim ilar­ ly splendiferous Radio C ity M usic H all in 1929. In fact, the high-kicking Rockettes were initially known as the Roxyettes. Although Jarvis has promised to install new drapes, sound systems, carpets and state-of-the-art chairs that rock, it’s doubt­ ful there w ill be any Merrillettes dancing at the Queen C ity’s Roxy. ®

fre e w ill a s tro lo g y

BY ROB BREZSNY_______________________________

M A Y 0 8 -1 4

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Advising an Aries to have more patience is like commanding a bon­ fire to burn in slow motion. Nevertheless, I am at least going to make the effort. Therefore, please be aware that if you would like to place yourself in maximum alignment with cosmic trends, you should find a way to be perfectly content as you watch and wait; you should figure out how to enjoy dwelling calmly in a state o f trusting faith; and you should fantasize freely about the delights that will come to you if you cultivate quiet, relaxed confidence.

TAURUS (Apr. 20-M ay 20): Before the 1820s, the mosquito was unknown in Hawaii. But when whaling ships from distant lands began visiting, they brought hordes o f the annoying creatures as stow­ aways in their water casks. I suggest you keep this scenario in mind in the coming week, Taurus; let it serve as a warning beacon. According to my astrological assessment, the new world you have recently begun to inhabit resembles a paradise without mosquitoes. You may have to take special measures to keep it that way, like prohibiting whaling ships from dropping anchor in your harbor — or the metaphorical equivalent.

GEMINI

(May 21 -June 20): I hope you have a spiritual path. It doesn’t matter what kind, as long as you have some relationship with a benevolent source o f life and love beyond your little ego. Having said that, I also want to advocate the importance o f not taking your spiri­ tual path too damn seriously. Grave fanaticism in any form, even if devoted to a noble cause, is danger­ ous not only to your mental health,

Y0U c a n

but also to that o f the people around you. This week it will be especially important for you to be playfully mocking towards that which you hold most sacred. Examples?

CANCER (June 21-July 22): I’m on my periodic Oracular Scavenger Hunt, wandering the globe trolling for fresh metaphors to inspire my prophecies. W hile visiting the Hawaiian island o f Molokai, I’ve found one that is a good fit for your current astrological aspects. Though many roads crisscross Molokai’s 260square-mile expanse, there is not a single traffic signal anywhere.

(July 23-Aug. 22): I’d like to give fair warning to your inner critic, your pessimistic tendencies and the part o f your psyche that har­ bors lowered expectations. In the coming months, the astrological omens will be compelling me to forecast a high level o f health, happi­ ness and “hallelujah”-shouting. So if you would prefer to remain stuck in outmoded fantasies about your unworthiness, I suggest you avoid my horoscopes for the foreseeable future. If, on the other hand, you’re ready to boost your faith in your ability to get what you want, please stay tuned.

Likewise, Capricorn, I hope you won’t let a single glitch darken your otherwise fantastic run o f good for­ tune in the coming week.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “I am superior to you only in one point,” Narcissus tells Goldmund in Herman Hesse’s novel Narcissus a n d G oldm und. “I’m awake, whereas you are only half awake, or completely asleep sometimes. I call a man awake who knows in his con­ scious reason his innermost unrea­ sonable force, drives and weaknesses, and knows how to deal with them.” I am borrowing this pithy little speech for your horoscope, Aquarius. You, too, are only half-awake. But you’re now in prime time to find out much more about your innermost unreasonable force, drives and weak­ nesses — and become more skilled in dealing with them

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Western science and religion have differing views on how the universe was created, but they agree that it happened a long time ago. Tantra and other less publicized spiritual traditions, on the other hand, assert that the universe is recreated anew in every moment through the divinely erotic play o f God and Goddess. They say that if we humans treat lovemaking as an experimental sacra­ ment, we can attune ourselves to the union o f the two primal deities and, in a sense, participate in the ongoing creation o f the world. So are you up for some cosmos-generating sex this week, Pisces? The astrological omens say you are. ®

Dear Lola, I have been searching for nice women between ages 20 and 36 and have not had any luck finding a special lady. I don't care if they have kids or not, or if they're smokers or drinkers. How do I begin asking a woman if she would like a date? I like activities, movies, walking, dances, dining out and being outside. I'm a hard-working man who works five days a week and has weekends off. I also have my own place and truck. Bachelor in Bristol Dear Bachelor, The personals do work. To take your search a step further, try coming to Seven Days' next speed-dating event. It's a fun, non-threatening way for single folks to meet other single folks. You might also check out our calendar and classes listings for activities that look interesting. You never know who else might be there. As for the awkward­ ness of asking for a first date, what about starting slow — that is, by setting up some activities in groups where you can get to know each other as friends and see what devel­ ops from there? . Love, Lola
