A mixed reaction to Willamette Week piece By ERICK BENGEL COAST WEEKEND

y now, many of you have read the recent Willamette Week story “Astoria is the Best Place in Oregon For A Weekend Bender” by Matthew Korfhage. It’s a fairly standard roundup of ways to get wasted in our community and geek out on Goonies lore, delivered

coast

in a cheeky (or, as Korfhage calls it, “irreverent”) tone that, from a resident’s standpoint — or, really, anyone’s standpoint — could be read as reductive and condescending. A sample: “Astoria makes no sense sober, in no small part because no one else is sober. As somebody is sure to tell you at some point during your stay, it’s a drinking town with a ﬁshing problem — designed by drunks for drunks.”

In other words, the article is exactly what you’d expect from an alt weekly. I’ve tried reading it from two angles: as a fellow writer, and as a local (albeit a relatively new one). On one hand, the piece meets the minimum requirements of its genre. List of sites to get sloshed? Check. Token nods toward Astoria’s historical import?

‘Big Red’ and the art of Christos Koutsouras By DWIGHT CASWELL

FOR COAST WEEKEND

hristos Koutsouras is passionate about art — a passion that is on display at an exhibit of his recent work at Imogen Gallery. The show opens during this month’s Second Saturday Art Walk in Astoria. It is Imogen’s fifth anniversary, and according to owner Teri Sund, “Christos has been a huge part of the gallery since the beginning.” Koutsouras doesn’t fit into any school of art. His paintings seem drawn from some realm of the subconscious, yet closely observed and subtly painted. They are, as arts activist Jeremy Efroymson put it, “suspended in spaces that alternate between chaos and calm.” Born on the Greek island of Samos, the long voyage of Koutsouras’ life brought him to the Pacific Northwest, where he moored himself to Astoria’s waterfront seven years ago.

Always interested in art, he grew up in a period of Greek history when a military junta controlled the country, when art was less important than just getting by. When he was old enough, he joined the Merchant Marine. Eight years later he jumped ship and made his way to Berlin, where he enrolled in art school. It was the beginning of a successful international career. Recognized for his discerning use of color, Koutsouras was one of 105 artists from all over the world chosen to create art for the East Side Gallery, an international memorial for freedom consisting of a nearly mile-long section of the Berlin Wall. Koutsouras left for New York and had multiple exhibitions at the Indianapolis Museum of Contemporary Art. From there, he made his way to Seattle and finally to Astoria.

Celtic tunes performed at Peninsula Arts Center LONG BEACH, WASH. — Cary Novotny, a guitarist and vocalist, will perform Celtic tunes at the Peninsula Arts Center (504 Pacific Ave. N. ) 7 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 5. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Novotny has been on the Irish music scene for about 20 years. His sound has made him one of the most in-demand guitar players in Irish music, the arts center said in a release. “With unerring rhythm, boundless energy and versatility, he varies from breakneck speed to delicate finger-style in the blink of an eye,” the center wrote. Novotny was a founding member of former Lord of the Dance fiddle-duo, The Bridies, Johnny B Connolly’s Bridgetown, and Portland’s Irish band Cul an Ti. Listers can expect a wide range of American music, from Americana to singer-songwriter favorites from Cary’s large reper-

toire, according to press materials. Novotny is also on the Board of the Acoustic Music Foundation, and is the Peninsula Arts Center’s attorney. Tickets are $15 and available on Brown Paper Tickets, by emailing events@peninsulaartscenter.org, or by calling Bill Svendsen at 360-901-0962. Wine, beer, and other refreshments are available for purchase.

The Angora Hiking Club has two walks coming up in August on the Long Beach Peninsula. State park specialists will cover historical information related to the Corps of Discovery’s visits to the sites more than 200 years ago. On both days, hikers will meet at the Sixth Street parking lot in Astoria at 9 a.m. (one block west of Video Horizons) and will carpool to the Washington State Parks. No dogs are allowed on the hikes.

Open mic

The arts center holds an open mic the Friday night before each concert. Singers, instrumentalists, poets, spoken-word artists, stand-up comedians and dramatists are all welcome.

Coast Guard teaches boater education class ASTORIA — The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 62, in partnership with the Oregon State Marine Board, will teach a Boater Education Class that results in a boater education card. The class will be held 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 5, in the second floor conference room at Englund Marine & Industrial Supply (95 Hamburg Ave.). Registration begins at 7:30 am. The cost, which includes the class manual, is $10. “The course covers practical boating safety information and local boating rules and regulations, as well as

tips and techniques for making boating more enjoyable,” the Coast Guard wrote in a release. “Additionally, a section on cold-water survival will be shared.” Students who successfully complete the course may apply for their boater education card, which is required by Oregon’s and Washington’s mandatory boater education programs. The National Association of State Boating Law Administrators approves this course. All Oregon boaters 12 and older must carry their boater education card when operating power boats greater

than 10 horsepower. Youth 12 to 15 must have a card to operate a boat under 10 horsepower and must also be supervised by a card-holding adult (16 years of age, 18 years of age for Personal Watercraft Operators) when operating power boats greater than 10 horsepower. “You can be cited a hefty fine for not having a card,” the Coast Guard wrote. The Boater Education Card also helps save money on boat insurance. To preregister or obtain further information, contact Dave Phillips at 503-4409130.

On Saturday, Aug. 5, hikers at Cape Disappointment will tackle the Coastal Forest Loop Trail. They should expect to arrive at the trail head at about 9:30 a.m. to meet Stephen Wood, a Washington State park ranger and naturalist. The trail head is in the gravel parking lot adjacent to the Cape “D” Cafe, across from the campground entrance. The loop is roughly 1.5 miles over difficult terrain. The hike will last an hour to an hour and a half, organizers said. Hikers should be prepared for primitive trail conditions. Sturdy footwear is highly recommended. Trail conditions will include heavily rooted, muddy, narrow and steep sections. Be prepared for mosquitoes; they are heavy this year. “The long loop of the Coastal Forest Trail will provide an excellent cross-section of the rich cultural and ecological sites that Cape Disappointment has to offer,” the hiking club said in a release. “We will

explore the coastal forest through a historical lens … and provide some modern ecological observations on the workings of a ‘coastal forest.’” Significant sites and sights will include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ jetty works, cedar trees, Anchorage Island and oldgrowth Sitka spruce trees.

Fort Columbia

On Saturday, Aug. 12, the club will take on the Fort Columbia Hike. Participants should expect to arrive at about 9:30 a.m. to meet Aaron Webster, a Washington State Park interpretive specialist who will lead

hikers on the Scarborough Trail that winds through the fort with its historic buildings and gun batteries, and continues up through a forest of Sitka spruce and hemlock.

Sturdy hiking shoes, water and snacks, binoculars, bug repellent, hiking sticks and weather-appropriate clothing should be considered.

The Electric Fences Festival presents free-spirited gathering PHOTO BY COLIN MURPHEY

Seaside author Melissa Eskue Ousley

Seaside author teaches suspense writing workshop SEASIDE — Melissa Eskue Ousley, an award-winning Seaside author, will give a talk on the paranormal 5 p.m. Friday, Aug. 4, at Book Warehouse (1111 N. Roosevelt Drive). The author will be signing copies of her novels “Sunset Empire” and “Pitcher Plant,” which are set on the North Coast and feature murder and restless spirits. Then, at 5 p.m. Friday, Aug. 11, come to the warehouse for a workshop on writing spooky and suspenseful scenes. “The author will share her secrets for scaring the socks off readers,” organizers said. “You might not sleep that night, but you’ll learn how to write an engaging story.” Fellow Oregon writer Deb Vanasse, author of “Cold Spell” and “Out of the Wilderness,” has offered high praise for “Pitcher Plant”: “Seaside setting, haunted house (or is it?), creepy dolls — all the makings of a bewitching tale. Toss in a bit of romance and prepare to be up way too late, turning pages.” “Sunset Empire” received a five-star review from Readers’ Favorite, which called it a “fun story, a mixture of fantasy, paranormal, and

NEHALEM — From noon to midnight Saturday, Aug. 5, in the sprawling meadow of a farm in the Nehalem River Valley, the Electric Fences Festival will present a day of live music and revelry. The 16 performers at the third annual event run the gamut — from the moody, cinematic wild-western twang of Portland’s Roselit Bone, to the lilting, literary folk of Los Angeles’ Alex Dupree, to the cheeky garage punk of The Dumpies, from Austin, Texas. A handful of local acts will join the cross-country roster. Tickets are $20. Camping is available for an additional $10. Both can be purchased at the gate or at electricfencesfest.com. In curating Electric Fences, organizer Travis Champ envisioned a free-spirited, aesthetically motivated gathering, as opposed to the sponsored, profit-driven and increasingly homogenized modern festival model, organizers wrote. “The main goal is for everyone involved to have a good time,” Champ said. “So I’ve been trying to find the middle ground between an organized

Lots of garlic

CLATSKANIE — Like garlic? Mark your calendars. Clatskanie Farmers Market will hold its third annual Garlic Festival 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 19, at Copes Park, Clatskanie. “Garlic is as old as the hills,” organizers wrote. However, some varieties have only recently been brought to the U.S. since China and Russia — the countries of origin for many strains — have opened their borders to trade. Others have been discovered closer to the region. Inchellium Red, the

largest, most colorful local softneck strain, was tracked down in the Colville lands in Washington. Island Rocambole was developed in the San Juan Islands. All of these strains have been grown in the hills around Clatskanie. Market farmers selected garlic based on taste, size and shelf life. They traveled only a mile or two to market, and have been handled with care. Some strains have a shelf life of up to a year. The market will have two tapas chefs preparing fresh samples of raw and roasted

garlic recipes. Gazpacho, salsas, soups, artisan breads and more will be available to help guide people to their favorite garlic type. “At least one vendor will be offering comparative samples of raw garlic for the truly brave at heart, or the foolhardy, depending on your tolerance for heat,” organizers said. As usual, the market will offer supervised children’s activities, and all regular vendors will be stocked up. For one day, Clatskanie will be the center of Oregon’s garlic universe.

is the most fantastic thing about you.”

By KAELIA NEAL

This year’s festival is a ﬁve-day event beginning with the Queen’s Luncheon at noon Wednesday, Aug. 9, followed by the Queen’s Coronation at 6 p.m. “I think it’s going to be rewarding yet bittersweet when they announce the new queen,” McMahan said. Several signature events follow, including the Regatta Square, Admiral’s Reception, Grand Land Parade, Highwater Boat Parade, ﬁreworks show and Seamen’s Memorial. “My favorite is still the Seamen’s Memorial,” said U.S. Coast Guard Capt. Dan Travers, this year’s Regatta president, who has spoken at the memorial twice. “It’s a touching event.”

‘That’s a princess!’

COAST WEEKEND

he Astoria Regatta, a festival now in its 123rd year, is continuing its unique traditions — hence, this year’s theme: “Full Steam Ahead” — including an opening highlight: the Queen’s Coronation. On Wednesday, Aug. 9, Aubrey McMahan, the 2016 queen from Knappa, will pass her crown to one of four Regatta princesses. As Regatta Court members, the young women are constantly in the spotlight. And McMahan — the student Knappa High School has relied on to sing the National Anthem at sporting events — is used to being in the public eye. But when she joined Regatta, she said the attention

became more frequent, and a reminder of the importance of personal responsibility, treating others with respect and maintaining one’s reputation. “It made me strive to be a better person,” McMahan said. “People know you’re a hard worker. It was about proving it

to myself.” As advice for the future queen, McMahan said not to panic about being the center of attention; the community will support her. “Everyone who cares about Regatta cares about your well-being,” she said. “You are who you are, and that

In addition, the Regatta includes sailboat races, a concert, and a movie night and barbecue in Warrenton. Children can make floats for the Kiwanis Junior Parade, held 5:30 p.m. Thursday, • Aug. 10. The float that wins first place will be invited to partake in the Grand Land Parade. Regatta is a time to celebrate the new queen and the hard work the princesses have done, which includes giving speeches, making appearances and attending parades. Court members are Sydney Ordway, Megan Postlewait, Rebecca Sprengeler and Mackt to enzie Strain. McMahan said the Regatta court builds character and confidence. “Being a princess was like, ‘You can do it,” she said. “There’s nothing like walking around, all matching with our sashes, pins and crowns, and all the little girls … saying, ‘That’s a princess, that’s a p princess!’” As queen, McMahan has been someone for the princesses to rely on for advice and guidance. “It’s nice to form the sisterhood with the girls.” McMahan described her meetings with the Regatta members as a happy place and nter a chance for them to separate themselves from difficulties in their lives.

‘Representing our community’

Travers, who retired from the U.S. Coast Guard in 2016, said he wanted to be president because Regatta is a meaningful event, and he believes in its mission. “I was fortunate to get selected,” Travers said. “I thought, ‘This is a fun group of people.’” As president, Travers is in charge of coordinating meetings and fundraising events, making sure there are enough staff and volunteers, and working with the Regatta ub, court. “This community is absolutely amazing,” Travers said. “People are so giving, so thoughtful. Regatta means a lot.” There are 15 people on the Regatta er- board, including Dan Arnoth, who has been involved in Regatta since 1989. a To him, Regatta means heritage, he said. “I fell in love with the float and the court and have been doing it ever since.” Before becoming a board member in 1992, Arnoth was an escort to the court and president. He has been involved with Regatta for 18 years and now organizes the Grand Land Parade. “I’ve done every event for Regatta. You name it, I’ve done it,” he ub, said. Arnoth was also involved in the Astoria Regatta’s award-winning float. “It’s been to- very successful,” he said. Most notably, the Astoria Regatta Festi-

14 // COASTWEEKEND.COM Coast Weekend’s local restaurant review

Los Tacos Locos: quick and easy, meat-and-cheesy Review and photos by THE MOUTH OF THE COLUMBIA MOUTH@COASTWEEKEND.COM

ow, thanks to Los Tacos Locos, whenever I pass the red kiosk just north of Seaside High on Highway 101, I’ll be tempted to pull over for a quick mulita. The cheesy, gooey, meaty little disc is a mood elevator that’s cheap enough to buy with loose change ($2.25). A mulita is like a tiny quesadilla, only better; between grilled, white corn tortillas is creamy, mushy avocado, diced tomato, red onion, cilantro and a juicy, salty meat (say, carne asada), all glued in place by rivers of melted cheese. If you’re lucky, some of that cheese will seep out onto grill and burn into crispy shards. That swoon-inducing medley of meat and cheese pretty well sums up Tacos Locos. That, along with low prices and speed, is the corner of the crowded, mostly homogenized ecosystem of Mexican restaurants on the North Coast they’ve managed to stake out since opening three months ago. Readers have heard this rant before, but, as a brief reminder: We’re still waiting for more Mexican restaurants that either go all-in on regional traditions or make something fresh and new and imbued with personality. OK. Enough. Until then I’ll keep dreaming. Now then: Back to Tacos Locos, which is content to mostly follow the American-ized Mexican standard playbook. Most everything there can be eaten with your hands: tacos, burritos, chimichangas, etc. A few segments of the styrofoam containers came filled with lardy refried beans and Spanish rice, but there aren’t really any restaurant-style entrées. No

steaks, seafood, soup and so on. It’s just big, basic stuff. Meat and potatoes (or, as it were, meat and cheese). However, I found the meats more presently cooked than one often finds at competing Mexican restaurants in the region. They were generally juicy and tender — not cooked to oblivion — and well-seasoned. The carne asada, pastor, carnitas and chorizo were on nearequal footing, with the chicken a step behind. Then there’s the outlier,

the rarely found chicharrón, a crispy pork skin — well, crunchy, really, like airy, oily, flaky croutons. (Note to self: Chicharrón in a mulita could be divine.) While the mulita stands out, and the street-style tacos are ample and affordable ($1.65), somewhere along the way Tacos Locos’ menu melts into a heavy, meaty melange. The Loco Burrito ($7.25) was football-sized and cried out for sour cream and avocado. It shared

the almost unholy girth of the Breakfast Burrito ($6.50). Packed with smooth, greasy eggs, bacon, sausage and hash browns, it ought to be called the “Breakfast-for-Two Burrito.” Or maybe the “Breakfastand-Lunch Burrito.” Or how about the “Breakfast-and-Go-Back-toSleep Burrito.” The Chimichanga with Rice and Beans ($7.75) was about the size of a regular burrito. The grilled tortilla was jam-packed with cheese and meat (a peppery, juicy carne asada in this case). It was a greasy, gluttonous, one-note temptation. The Torta de Jamon ($6.50) was another shameful pleasure. On a hot

dog bun and served with fries, it was basically a ham-and-cheese-and-avocado sandwich. And, come to think of it, ham and cheese should enjoy avocado more often. The Sopes ($3.00) and Gorditas ($3.50) were pretty similar, with the sope beings served open-faced and the gordita packing the contents — beans, sour cream, a sprinkling of Cotija, pico and meat — within the heavy, grainy corn tortillas. Indeed, while the beds for sopes are often soft and puffy, Taco Locos go the opposite direction: denser, more futon than pillow-top. As a drive-thru only, with nary a picnic table in site, Tacos Locos is stripped of pretense. And in our crowded, copy-cat market of Mexican restaurants, I actually found it relieving to not be staring at the déjà vu decor, nor plunking chips in the bland waters of complimentary salsa, nor scouring menus with hundred-plus items or overpaying for a syrupy margarita. Sometimes you just wanna get down to business and be on your way. Quick and easy, meat-andcheesy. And just like that, I hear the mulita calling my name. See you soon for another. Or two. CW

A Koutsouras painting of the Uppertown net shed

Continued from Page 4 Koutsouras’ art had been largely figurative, but today he draws inspiration from the river, sky and structures of his adopted home. For the Imogen show, Koutsouras focuses on one iconic Astoria structure: the Uppertown net shed familiarly known as “Big Red.” He said he is “very close and personal with the space and my friends and Astoria and its history.” His work in this exhibit is about the transformations of people and structures as much as it is about location. “I sense the spirit of the place as it evolves and changes in time,” he said.

‘Emotionally alive’

Since Koutsouras moved to Astoria, he has experienced the death of his father, the passing of friends, the end of one relationship and the beginning of another. “It caused me to question my life, what I was doing,” he said. Koutsouras puts all of this living into his paintings. They are emotionally alive. The late Royal Nebeker, who had his studio in Big Red, said of Koutsouras’ work: “When contemplating one of his large panoramic

paintings, one becomes aware of a different kind of narrative. I am referring to his representation of a nature at once vast and profoundly personal.” Koutsouras is as passionate about the arts as he is personal about his painting. But he’s not above playing with art history as well. One of his pieces is titled “The Night Watch,” a painting of the night but that has little to do with Rembrandt. Another is “The Scream,” which features the net shed in its ruined glory as a small part of the canvas, surrounded by abstract lines and forms that all but vibrate. “We have to take responsibility for our physical environment,” the artist said. “Sometimes even structures need to scream.”

Koutsouras believes that “we have to get away from the idea that art is a luxury.” As a recent study by the Arts Council of Clatsop County established, the arts have transformed Astoria. “It is not the same city as when I came here,” Koutsouras said. “The town is thriving, and our work is important to the town, but we don’t do anything for the artists. We have to work on the collective consciousness to bring about more appreciation for the arts. If you are talking about elevating a place, aesthetics is important.” A spirit of creativity has long enlivened Astoria, and Koutsouras believes the town, is “missing a place dedicated only to the arts, a focal point for music, work spaces and galleries. It would bring people from far away. It needs to be done.” His candidate for that role? Big Red. CW

Continued from Page 3 Check. Flippant observations about the colorful townsfolk? Double check. But the part of me that sees Astoria as an adopted home can’t help wondering why, if Korfhage had to write about our town, he chose to cast it, ﬁrst and foremost, as a place to get hammered. He delivers this bottom line reasonably well, to be sure, but it’s a piece shaped, and necessarily limited, by a drunk’s selective attention. (It’s easy to conclude that no one here is sober when you only visit the bars, for example.) Then there’s the Goonies house bit, where Korfhage encourages visitors to wander up the drive and check out the Uppertown home. As he points out, “it’s not a private drive. It’s a public road, and you have the right to walk or drive up it. Never say die, and feel no guilt.” He is right. It is a public road. Fair enough. No journalistic misconduct here.

I CAN’T FAULT ASTORIANS WHO, KNOWING WHAT OUR RIVER COMMUNITY HAS TO OFFER, WOULD HAVE HOPED THAT AN OUTSIDER WOULD VALUE IT FOR SO MUCH MORE. However, the city and chamber of commerce — and, for that matter, “Goonies” star Sean Astin — have been trying to keep people away from the property because the crush of visitors, many of them ill-mannered, made life miserable for the homeowners. Korfhage, for his part, provides the home address. This casually dismissive attitude toward Sandi Preston and the neighborhood’s well-documented Goonies hell makes it clear that Korfhage’s allegiance is to pleasure-seeking tourists like himself rather than Astorians impacted by their behavior. What the article lacks, in short, is a sense that Korfhage genuinely cares about

the people who live here. Were I the author, I would argue that such criticism is beside the point. The piece is generally accurate, amusing in parts, fulﬁlls its basic function. You want a sarcastic, superﬁcial piece about how to have your way with Astoria in 36 hours? Here ya go. Because Korfhage doesn’t pretend to want a deeper relationship with Astoria than one where he uses it for drive-thru self-indulgence, I can’t hold that against him. He is straightforward about his intentions. But I can’t fault Astorians who, knowing what our river community has to offer, would have hoped that an outsider would value it for so much more. CW

FOR COAST WEEKEND

TILLICUM [TI•LƏ̇•KƏM] noun 1. a personal friend in the singular. In its plural form, it has a larger sense of inclusion, meaning community or people . 2. Tillicum House: an old Queen Anne Victorian on 14th Street near the intersection with Exchange Street that houses operations for Coast Community Radio KMUN 91.9 FM in Astoria. The radio station took over the property in 1987 after it was gifted to the Tillicum Foundation, the governing body of local public broadcasting in the Lower Columbia region, by benefactor Helen Patti. Originally known as the Trullinger House prior to the rechristening by the

radio station, the property has reportedly served as a bordello, apartment house and dental ofﬁce at times in the past.

Origin:

Tillicum — sometimes spelled as Tilikum, as in Portland’s latest bridge, Tilikum Crossing, on the south waterfront — is a Chinook Jargon word meaning “community” or “people,” especially as it refers to the common native peoples of area tribes as distinguished from the chiefs and leaders within those tribes. The Jargon word originates from the Chinook word, tlxam, which also means “people.” The Chinook Jargon word was often used with a modifier to give more specific descriptions, such as Huloima tillikum, meaning a stranger; Naika tillikum, meaning relatives; or Elip tillikum, which refers to “the first people.” “A new radio station was set to go on the air at 10 a.m. this morning. Licensed as KCPB 90.9 Warrenton, this low-pow-

ered FM service will originate from the Coast Community Radio studios inside Tillicum House in Astoria. The transmitter is co-located with KMUNFM’s antenna on Megler Mountain, just across the bridge from Astoria in Pacific County, Wash. Tillicum Foundation, the nonprofit membership corporation that operates KMUN-FM Astoria and KTCB-FM Tillamook, will own and operate this new station as well.” — “Water Under the Bridge: April 20, 2016,” The Daily Astorian, April 20, 2016 “‘With the help of Astoria’s own Fort George Brewery, FARMSTOCK promises to feature the best our region can produce,’ says Tom Hartland, development director for the Tillicum Foundation, non-profit operator of the stations of Coast Community Radio.” — “Fort George becomes FARMSTOCK sponsor,” The Daily Astorian, July 28, 2011 CW

ILWACO, WASH. — A new exhibition at the Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum explores the history of “Derbyville” and the early years of salmon derbies, recreational fishing, and the emergence of the charter-boat fishing industry on the Long Beach Peninsula. An opening reception for “Derby Days: Chasing the Prize” will be held 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, Aug. 4, at the museum (115 S.E. Lake St.). The exhibition will be on view until Saturday, Oct. 7. “Though angling developed centuries ago, the rise of recreational fishing as a popular pursuit took on a new dimension in the years after World War II,” the museum explained in a release. “Towns such as Ilwaco and Chinook began to see new potential in recreational salmon fishing as an opportunity for business

development.” Salmon derbies began as a way to exploit rising interest in recreational ﬁshing, the museum continued. Over time, other ﬁshing derbies took hold on the Peninsula, including the Surf Perch Derby and the Black Lake Fishing Derby.

In the early years, commercial fishing companies took sport-fishing customers out in their boats. Eventually, recreational fishermen arrived by the hundreds with their own small boats and launched right off the shore at what was called “Derbyville” (between Point Ellice and McGowan). Soon, knowledgeable fishermen took advantage of expanding opportunity by offering charter services. “Thus emerged the charter-boat fishing industry, which has been a mainstay of the business landscape of Ilwaco for decades,” the museum wrote. Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Admission is free on Thursdays. For more information, call 360-642-3446 or visitcolumbiapacificheritagemuseum. org.

Creative writing workshop focuses on ‘Faces in Fact and Fiction’ ASTORIA — Author and publisher Matt Love will hold a writing and creative-thinking workshop called “Faces in Fact and Fiction” from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 16, in a private Astoria home. The class costs $65 and will cap at 15 participants. Love will guide participants through a series of face-themed writing prompts generated from short readings, visual images, objects and discussion. “Writers make use of faces all the time in their screenplays, songs, poetry, ﬁction, essays, commentary and memoirs,” Love wrote. “They are an essential ingre-

dient to the creative process and exploring the contours of humanity. Moreover, one sublime or excruciating face can be the launching point for an entire literary project, double live album or adopting a dog on a whim!” The writer can respond to the prompts with ﬁction, nonﬁction or whatever direction he or she chooses. “I think the workshop will help writers and perhaps even musicians and visual artists dig deep into the meaning of faces in their lives and art,” Love said. Participants will pay at the beginning of the workshop. Scholarships are also available. To register, email nestuc-

caspitpress@gmail.com Love is the publisher of Nestucca Spit Press. He’s the author/editor of 17 books about Oregon. He’s also taught writing workshops at Portland State University, University of Oregon, Paciﬁc University, Clackamas Community College and the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology. In 2009, Love won the Oregon Literary Arts’ Stewart H. Holbrook Literary Legacy Award for his contributions to Oregon history and literature. Participants will pay at the beginning of the workshop.

Found in translation: context, understanding Married for almost forty years, Bruce and Ju-Chan Fulton have spent more than thirty of those years working to translate literary works from Korean into English.

earned a Master’s degree from the University of Washington. He’s a native English speaker, but earned his doctorate at Seoul National University and now holds the Young-Bin Min Chair in Korean Literature and Literary Translation at the University of British Columbia.

The latest effort from the Seattle-based couple is “Sunset: A Ch’ae Manshik Reader.” This is an anthology featuring a wide selection of works by Ch’ae Manshik, who lived and wrote in Korea in the first half of the 20th century. That was a turbulent time in Korea’s history. Japan occupied the Korean Peninsula from 1910 to 1945. The Japanese embarked on an ambitious modernization campaign in Korea, which before then had been described as a hermit kingdom. The changes came at the bitter cost of repression and

disruption of a culturally distinctive society that had developed over a thousand years, and Korean writers during this period were subjected to scrutiny and intimidation by their colonial overseers. In an introduction that really needs to be read twice — once at the beginning in order to understand the general historical context, and then again after reading through the anthology so as to connect the dots further — the Fultons trace Ch’ae’s navigation of tricky ideological waters as his writings contribute to a “national literature” that was constantly being tugged in two opposite directions: the expectation that it would support the occupiers, and the inclination to give voice to the occupied. In a short essay written in 1935, “A Writing Worm’s Life,” Ch’ae mulls over these pressures: “I can’t tell what’s clean and what’s murky in my life …” The Fultons also pro-

attention will note passages that on the surface appear to pay lip service to the power structure, but also contain undercurrents that suggest otherwise. Ch’ae started out as a reporter, and that surely informs the keen details he transmits in his fiction — from a young woman “vivacious as a minnow,” to the description of a drug addict’s body: “a hideous infestation of scabbed-over boils surrounded by blackand-blue bruises, along “Sunset: A Ch’ae with new boils of mung Manshik Reader” bean-like protuberances Edited and translated with an angry red halo by Bruce and around them — all of them Ju-Chan Fulton coated with a gummy black Columbia University salve.” Press “Sunset,” the title novel224 pp la, was published in 1948.
