  1. Jamaica Kincaid talks about 'See Now Then'

    On the surface of her first new novel in a decade, the vaguely autobiographical, startlingly ambitious "See Now Then," author Jamaica Kincaid seems to tell a simple story about a New England family that is falling apart. Mr. Sweet, a musician and composer, turns out to hate his wife, a writer known only as Mrs. Sweet, and their children, Persephone and Heracles. But just beneath the surface is a much larger, even cosmic meditation on the nature of time — as Mr. Sweet puts it, "the seeing of Now being Then and how Then becomes Now."

    Welcome to the first book meme of 2013: the charred cover.
    Welcome to the first book meme of 2013: the charred cover. It happens sometimes -- a cluster of books arrive with covers that bear a resemblance to one another. During the chick-lit era, there were scads of novels with illustrations of high heels,...

  6. Live video chat with Will Self on 'Umbrella' and more, Tue. Jan 15

    Novelist, journalist, sometime bad boy and frequent literary provocateur Will Self is hard to miss in England. He's 6-feet-5, for starters; what's more, he's terrifically prolific, publishing literary works of fiction and nonfiction almost every year. His latest is "Umbrella," a 397-page novel story told in a single stream-of-consciousness paragraph.

  7. On the Spot: Why seating on flights is up in the air

    Question: Can an airline bump passengers from previously purchased, extra-legroom seats? Last summer we checked in online for a United Airlines Boston-to-San Francisco flight and learned that we had been bumped back to regular coach from our previously purchased Economy Plus seats. We thought paying for the extra legroom seats essentially guaranteed us those seats. Could the fliers in "our" seats have had some frequent-flier elite status giving them priority?

  9. Add projects, networking to slow-moving job search

    When most people think of college graduations, they conjure up images of sunny days on football fields, with gown-wearing graduates throwing their caps toward the blue spring sky. That's fine, but what about the numerous graduates who collect their diplomas indoors in December? Not only do their graduation ceremonies suffer from a bit of an identity crisis but these grads also must play catch-up when it comes to finding a job.

  10. Review: Richard Kraft photographs anonymous souls on London Tube

    His camera hidden beneath his coat, Walker Evans was, in his own words, a "penitent spy and ... apologetic voyeur" when making a series of portraits in the New York subway from 1938-41. Richard Kraft's new photographs at Charlie James were inspired by Evans' work and have a similar power, flirting at once with the psychological, the sociological and the philosophical.

  11. Time for a teacher's conference with Mr. Boone

    Learning last year that Bob Boone, one of my former teachers at Highland Park High School (never mind when), was still teaching creative writing to children and adults filled me with the kind of joy you get when you return to your hometown decades later and see a favorite childhood haunt is still open for business.
