Boston Globe- 28 April 2024

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e C25 Obituaries By Harrison Smith WASHINGTON POST She was a discus thrower from Czechoslovakia. He was a hammer thrower from the United States. Together, Olga Fikotová and Harold “Hal” Connolly were a storybook couple, taking some of the chill out of the Cold War when they fell in love and each won a gold medal at the 1956 Olympics in Melbourne. When they married in Prague months later, overcoming Communist red tape and criticism from government officials who deemed her a traitor, some 30,000 well-wishers and curiosity seekers filled historic Old Town Square, straining to catch a glimpse of the couple before they left for the United States. “Love Triumphs Over Ideology,” Life magazine declared in a headline. “Fate,” Ms. Connolly later told the Financial Times, “used Harold and I to illustrate that we can all choose whether to quarrel or be happy together.” The marriage didn’t last — Ms. Connolly and her husband separated after 16 years, finalizing their divorce in 1974 — but she built a new life for herself in the United States, embracing activist causes as a feminist and environmentalist even as she continued setting discus records. She competed in four more Olympics, all as an American, and was elected flag bearer by her fellow athletes for the 1972 Opening Ceremonies in Munich, becoming the rare Olympian to win gold for one country and carry the flag for another. “The Olympic experience in every respect opened the world for me,” said Ms. Connolly, who died April 12 at 91. “It made me what I am.” Her gold medal-winning victory in the Olympics was all the more remarkable given that she was still a relative novice in her sport — she had thrown the discus for less than two years before arriving in Melbourne at age 24 — and had an uneasy relationship with Czechoslovak authorities, even before she fell in love with someone from across the Iron Curtain. Growing up, she recalled, she had been kicked out of school because she was from a “reactionary family.” In Melbourne, she was reportedly the only member of her country’s team who had declined membership in the Communist Party, risking retribution because of her Protestant religious beliefs. An only child, Olga Fikotová was born in Prague, the capital of Czechoslovakia and now the Czech Republic, on Nov. 13, 1932. Her father served in the securit y d e tail f or Tomáš Masaryk, the first president of Czechoslovakia; according to the family, he was persecuted during the Nazi occupation and was sent to prison for two years after Communists came to power in 1948. During that time, Ms. Connolly and her mother moved to a small town outside Prague, where her mother worked in the coal mines. Ms. Connolly, who stood 5- foot-11, had by then established herself as a gifted athlete. She competed in international basketball and handball tournaments while spending part of each summer performing compulsory physical labor. Ms. Connolly set out to become an orthopedic surgeon and was s tudying medi c in e a t Charles University in Prague in 1954 when she began throwing the discus with encouragement from coach Otakar Jandera, a former Olympic hurdler. He introduced her to the fundamentals of the sport while playing “The Blue Danube” on a loop over the loudspeakers, teaching her how to spin in time to the waltz. The next year, she had her breakthrough at an international track meet in Poland. She finished 28th out of 28 throwers but was approached during a workout the next day by Nina Ponomareva, a champion discus thrower who had earned the Soviet Union its first Olympic gold medal. Taking pity on Ms. Connolly, she offered tips on her technique and instructed the young Czech athlete to bulk up. “She told me that if I followed her advice, she would see me the next year in Melbourne,” Ms. Connolly recalled. Ponomareva was right: The next year, Ms. Connolly won the gold medal after setting what was then a women’s Olympic record, with a throw of nearly 176 feet 2 inches. Ponomareva, the reigning Olympic champion, came in third. “She was mad as hell,” Ms. Connolly said. Ms. Connolly had planned to return to Prague to complete her medical degree after the Games. But soon after her arrival in Melbourne, she met Harold, the first American to win gold in the hammer throw since Fred Tootell in 1924. The athletes almost literally bumped into one another, Ms. Connolly recalled, striking up a conversation after she accidentally collided with another American while bounding out of the equipment trailer. Speaking broken English and German, they developed a relationship over the objections of Czechoslovak delegation leaders. Harold promised to come to Prague to marry her after the Games ended and arrived in the capital in early 1957 while visiting Europe as a goodwill ambassador for the State Department. Although Ms. Connolly said she had hoped to continue competing for Czechoslovakia after moving to the United States — her husband sold one of his hammers to finance their trip across the Atlantic — the country’s Olympic committee sent her a letter effectively disowning her. She gained US citizenship and helped her parents move to Southern California, where she and her husband settled in 1959 and were welcomed as celebrities. Discus champion Olga Fikotová Connolly, was in Olympics romance By Michael S. Rosenwald NEW YORK TIMES Michael C. Jensen, an economist and Harvard Business School professor whose evangelizing for stock options, golden parachutes, and leveraged buyouts helped reshape modern capitalism and empower Wall Street’s greed-is-good era, died on April 2 at his home in Sarasota, Florida. He was 84. The death was confirmed by his daughter Natalie JensenNoll. She did not specify a cause. Even before he embarked on a peculiar late-career intellectual partnership with Werner Erhard, the controversial self-help guru who created est, Mr. Jensen’s colleagues considered him among the most freethinking and divisive economists of his generation. “Mike was a kind of born proselytizer,” Eugene F. Fama, a University of Chicago professor and Nobel laureate in economics who collaborated with Mr. Jensen, said in an interview. “He was very sure o f himsel f in terms of his ideas being correct and, you know, pathbreaking.” They were also incendiary. In his book “The Golden Passport: Harvard Business School, the Limits of Capitalism, and the Moral Failure of the MBA Elite” (2017), journalist Duff McDonald called Mr. Jensen an “instrument of intellectual violence” who “created a Frankenstein that no one knows how to kill.” Mr. Jensen began his academic career in the late 1960s, when a seismic shift in economic theory was underway. For decades, students studying management — especially at Harvard Business School — were taught that executives (and their companies) should have a social conscience. Then, in 1970, economist and free-market theorist Milton Friedman published his groundbreaking essay “A Friedman Doctrine — The Social Responsibility of Business Is to Increase Its Profits,” in The New York Times Magazine. A business that “takes seriously its responsibilities for providing employment, eliminating discrimination, avoiding pollution,” Fr i edman wrot e , i s “preaching pure and unadulterated socialism.” Mr. Jensen, a free-market adherent himself, endorsed Friedman’s essay. But he detected a hole in the argument, which he explored in a seminal paper, “Theory of Firm: Managerial Behavior, Agency Costs and Ownership Structure,” written in 1976 with William H. Meckling while they were both professors at the University of Rochester. The paper explored the misalignment of interests between managers and the companies’ owners, the stockholders, which they said made it impossible for firms to exist solely for increasing profits. To align the interests of both parties, Mr. Jensen encouraged the use of stock options and equity as primary forms of compensation. He endorsed taking on debt to buy other companies because loan payments and reduced free cash flow would force executives to better manage costs. And he blessed golden parachutes — the large payments executives receive if they are forced to leave after a merger or the outright sale of a company. “Think about the problem in the following way: Top-level managers and the board of directors act as stockholders’ agents in deals involving hundreds of millions of dollars,” he wrote in Harvard Business Review. “If the alternative providing the highest value to stockholders is sale to another company and the retirement of the current management team, stockholders do not want the managers to block a bid in fear of losing their own jobs.” Executives walk away with their pockets comfortably lined with cash, the theory goes, but so do investors. “He was clearly some kind of genius,” said Nicholas Lemann, the former dean of the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University, who interviewed Mr. Jensen for his book “Transaction Man: The Rise of the Deal and the Decline of the American Dream” (2019). “I think he’s much more important in shaping the America we live in now than most people recognize.” That shaping largely transpired a t Har vard Business School, which Mr. Jensen joined in 1985, at the height of President Ronald Reagan’s pro-business economic policies. Two years later, in Oliver Stone’s movie “Wall Street,” Michael Douglas portrayed a fictional corporate raider, Gordon Gekko, who declared: “Greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right. Greed works.” Later in life, after Wall Street had been besieged by corporate stock option scandals and politicians derided excessive compensation packages, Mr. Jensen acknowledged that his ideas had spiraled out of control. He told The New Yorker in 2002 that basing compensation so heavily on options incentivized executives to lie about financial results. Stock options had become “managerial heroin,” he said; what the business world lacked was integrity. Around 2012, with Erhard, he founded the Erhard-Jensen Ontological/Phenomenological Initiative. They offered weeklong seminars on leadership, which they taught in far-flung places, typically near beaches. The cost: $3,000 per person. Lemann attended one in Bermuda. “I was involved in reorganizing the financial industry,” Mr. Jensen said onstage, according to Lemann’s book. But by then, he said, the world of finance was “staggeringly bad,” adding “I’m sickened by it.” Michael C.

Age 98, of Bedford, died on February 29, 2024, followingabrief illness. Born in 1925, Paddy was the daughter of the late William Henry Vanderbilt, III, former governor of Rhode Island and Emily O’Neill Davies. She was raised in New York City and Portsmouth, Rhode Island. Paddy served as a vibrant career volunteer with a deep interest in onthe-ground science. She developed a keen aptitude for math and science. After attending Foxcroft School in Middleburg, Virginia, she enrolled as one of only seven women in a freshman class of 728 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she earnedadegree in chemistry in the class of 1945. It was there she met her future husband, Jeptha Homer Wade of Cleveland, Ohio. A lifelong land conservationist and naturalist, she and her husband, Jeptha, were instrumental in protecting two important forest properties in Georgia – containing significant old-growth stands where research is conducted on the ecology and preservation of the longleaf pine/ wiregrass ecosystem. In 1983, Paddy, along with the directors of seven Boston museums, co-founded the Museum Institute for Teaching Science to help inspire and engage elementary school teachers in inquiry-based science learning at a critical time when interest in technology and science was on the wane. In 2019, the organization changed its name to the Wade Institute for Science Education to reflect its ongoing mission and honor Paddy’s leadership. Paddy remained actively involved with her alma mater, MIT. She served for about 30 years on the Corporation, the board of trustees of MIT. Paddy was also the second woman to serve as president of MIT’s Alumni Association. While on the Corporation, Paddy served on a variety of committees, including its Executive and Development Committees as well as its Joint Advisory Committee with MIT students. She was the Corporation’s representative to the MIT Community Service Fund and served for many years as its co-chair. She was inducted into the Massachusetts Hall of Fame for Science Educators for professional contributions to science education. Paddy was a loyal supporter of Manomet, an international organization that uses science-driven solutions to improve ecosystem health and human well-being, for more than four decades. She served as Chair of the Board from 1993 to 2010, during which time she reinforced her unwavering focus on science. She was an active member of the Board until her recent death. Paddy was a strong supporter of Mass Audubon throughout her life, beginning in 1949. It was there she developed her passion for birding alongside William Drury, a renowned ornithologist. She served on its board of directors for 23 years. She worked diligently to advance their mission in education, conservation, research and advocacy. For her efforts, she was presented the Allan Morgan Award for Lifetime Achievement. Paddy also had strong ties to Zoo New England, where she managed the Children’s Zoo concession stand and nurtured a baby gorilla. She was a trustee of the Eaglebrook School in Deerfield, MA. Paddy was an active Bedford resident since moving there in 1952. She engaged in town politics, serving on various local committees. Her church, St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Bedford, was very important to her, especially their outreach programs for community service. The project in Haiti was particularly meaningful to Paddy. She was predeceased by her husband of sixty years and sister Anne Hartwell. She is survived by her children, William Garretson Wade and his wife, Donna of Unity, ME, Emily Wade Hughey of Brookline, MA, Randall Hand Wade and his wife, Agnes of Amherst, MA and Rebecca Wade Comstock and her husband, Richard of Chappaqua, NY; her sister, Elsie Aidinoff of New York, NY; and brother, William Henry Vanderbilt of Ketchum, Idaho and his wife, Ann; ten grandchildren and two greatgrandchildren.

(The violin sold in 2013 for 1.1 million pounds, or about $1.3 million.) The reasons for seeking out items from the Titanic vary widely, but for Probst it is the stories about the victims and survivors that motivate him to keep collecting and to keep an eye on auctions. “There’s a few people out Collector Tony Probst (top left) and Titanic items that were up for auction: a pocketbook (top), a set of cuff links (above), and the violin case of bandleader Wallace Hartley (left). By Derrick Bryson Taylor NEW YORK TIMES Tony Probst’s passion for the Titanic is unwavering. Since the mid-1990s, he has amassed hundreds of artifacts from the ship’s maiden voyage in 1912 , including a lifebo at plaque, china, sheet music, and an array of personal documents. “I believe I’m the only person on planet Earth who has every piece of paper for one individual to get on board Titanic,” Probst, 64, said proudly this week. His collection is sometimes on display at the audio and visual store he runs with his sons in the Bay Area of California, but it has also toured prominent spaces, including the National Geographic Museum in Washington; the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, Calif.; and the Titanic museums in Branson, Mo., and Pigeon Forge, Tenn. Probst’s enthusiasm for the Titanic — which puts him somewhere between a collector and historian, he said — makes him part of a small but zealous community seeking out memorabilia from the ship, which sank after striking an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean, killing 1,500 people. Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd, an auction house in southwest England, was to host an auction on Saturday of Titanic and other shipping and transport memorabilia. Among the more than 250 items for sale is a black-andthere with very, very deep pockets and, you know, nowadays they get all the prime pieces,” Probst said. “I’m not in that category. I’m really more into preserving stories.” Probst, who said he was recuperating from a couple of big purchases, does not have anything on his wish list at the moment but planned to study the auction catalog anyway. “I really want to go after things that I want,” he said, or items that he could lease to museums. “I call it my retirement account, in a way, because I get the principal and that goes up in value,” he added. “But in the meantime, I get to lease it out and make a little money.” Henry Aldridge & Son has been holding Titanic-themed sales biannually since the late 1990s, according to Andrew Aldridge, the managing director of the auction house. Aldridge said bidders often had their own niches and individual motivations. “Some just collect Titanic memorabilia, per se,” he said. “But others go a little bit deeper and they work into specifics. Specific passengers, specific classes. People that come from specific areas. We’ll have people that just collect things from Scandinavian passengers.” The Titanic-collecting community is fairly small, particularly at the higher end of purchases, said David Scott-Beddard, chair of the British Titanic Society. Competition for hot-ticket items can sometimes be fierce. “To a certain extent, it’s how much do I wan t i t and how much am I prepared to spend on it — without the wife finding out,” he said. There was not much concern over items disappearing from the public view after being purchased, Scott-Beddard added. He said the community was very fortunate that a majority of collectors, even those shopping at the six- and seven-figure levels, were generous enough to allow their pieces to be displayed for the general public. “Titanic is probably, next to Noah’s Ark, history’s most famous ship,” said Charles Haas, president of the Titanic International Society. Some enthusiasts are driven by the search for increasingly rare artifacts carried off the ship by passengers, others by psychological connections that collectors sometimes make , viewing the disaster through the eyes of victims and survivors. Haas said he was unsure whether a day would come when deman d for Titanic items waned. “The Titanic story has already lasted 112 years,” he said. “And while there are people out there who say, ‘The ship sank, get over it,’ it has so much builtin drama to it that the younger generations are still quite fascinated by it.” Titanic treasures captivate collectors, but they need deep pockets INGRID PROBST VIA NEW YORK TIMES HENRY ALDRIDGE & SON PHOTOS VIA NEW YORK TIMES

ALSO INSIDE: HELP WANTED AND CLASSIFIEDS G eorgina Miles thought nothing of seeing a police cruiser parked outside the Dunkin’ next to her family’s Beacon Hill home. Around 1 or 2 a.m. on Feb. 18, Miles, 29, was walking home from a friend’s house when she spotted the officers peering into the Dunkin’, which sits across from the State House. As she entered her lobby, Miles was hit with a foul smell. When she awoke the next morning, the stench was exponentially worse. “This overwhelming smell of corpse began to take over our whole building,” said Miles, a marketing coordinator for a women’s health startup, who had to leave the fifth-floor unit for a few days. The smell was worst in the lobby, mere steps from the Dunkin’ next door, which is closed on weekends. Miles was worried that something or someone had died in the vicinity. “We have quite a few older people in the building,” Miles said. “Thankfully, they were all accounted for.” Dunkin’ did not respond to requests for comment, there is no police report on the incident, and it’s unclear what caused the smell and where it originated. The management company was called in to add deodorizers and investigate the smell emanating from the basement the residential building shares with Dunkin’. While the stench eventually subsided, residents were never told what caused the olfactory assault that crept up to the penthouse, above Miles’s home. Sure, being able to grab a medium regular downstairs may be convenient, but living in the vicinity of Dunkin’ can cause more problems than what fits into a box of Munchkins. And remarkable benefits.

H2 Address B o s t o n Sun d a y Glob e A P RIL 28, 2 0 2 4 By John R. Ellement GLOBE STAFF Y ou can walk down the street to Berlin Farms to buy your produce. So how do you like them apples? We ask that without Will Hunting’s sarcasm. You won’t need the sustenance to work on this stately 124-year-old Colonial in Berlin. It is move-in ready after undergoing an extensive renovation by its current owners, a general contractor and his artistic wife. Located in the Central Massachusetts town of Berlin — (pronounced “Burr-lin,” with the emphasis on the first syllable, per Town Hall) — the home’s nondescript exterior is a gentle counterpoint to the bright and warm color choices of its interior. The home, which sits on 1.84 acres, is positioned well back from Central Street. The driveway ends near a door that opens into the basement mudroom. A farmer’s porch runs across the left side of the home, and a traditional front entry holds court on the right. Behind that front door is a long foyer (22 feet), a hint that the room sizes will be substantial. A door on the right next to the stairs opens into a 220-square foot living room with deep-blue walls, three doublehung windows, and a ceiling fan. The flooring throughout much of the home is a refinished wideplanked pine, much of it original to the home. (The kitchen flooring matches the original.) Back out in the foyer and behind the stairs sits a 196-square-foot bedroom painted a bright orange-yellow. It has two double-hung windows, a wide closet, and the laundry setup, which is built into an alcove. The bedroom/laundry space is next to a half bath with a wide soapstone sink ideal for combating clothing stains. Two closets are ready to hide all the things a homeowner collects, from extra quilts to unwanted gifts from well-meaning aunts to holiday décor. An entryway off the foyer reveals an open floor plan that combines the family room, dining area, and kitchen in 586 square feet. The family room has a pair of windows that look out to the hilly front lawn and two that offer a view of the screen porch. The door to the farmer’s porch and a soffit visually separate the family room and dining area. Eat in the firelight from the dining room’s gas fireplace. Light also comes from a double-hung window, recessed lighting, and a wrought-iron chandelier. A French door opens to a stairwell down to the mudroom. The kitchen sits under a vaulted ceiling, but the showstopper is the rustic island with its green cabinetry, corbels, seating for two, and wide-plank pine top. An alcove in the island hides the trash can — unless you have a Labrador retriever. The kitchen also has high-end stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and white raised-panel cabinets with black pulls. There are four windows: a pair over the sink, one looking out to the side yard and driveway, and one that offers a view of the screen porch (180 square feet), accessed via a slider. Upstairs, the home’s remaining three bedrooms and the main full bath radiate off a long hallway. The primary suite offers a carpeted bedroom of 207 square feet with crown molding, a ceiling fan, four windows, and a walk-in closet that opens to a 180-square-foot attic storage space. The en-suite bath has ceramic tile flooring, a white double vanity with a long Carrara marble counter, recessed lighting, and a tub/shower combination that has a curtain. The largest of the two secondary bedrooms on this floor clocks it at 196 square feet and offers blue walls, a ceiling fan, three windows, carpeting, and a double-door closet. Its smaller counterpart (143 square feet) features walls painted a burnt orange, two windows, carpet, and a double-door closet. They share a full bath that has a mahoganytoned single vanity topped with Carrara marble, wide-plank pine flooring, and a tub-shower combination. The basement level includes storage areas and a poured-concrete floor. Tammy Arbour of Lamacchia Realty in Hudson is the listing agent. As of press time, an offer had been accepted on the property.

That’s who gets hurt the most.” South End resident Nancy Farrington has lived in her condo in a luxury, full-service building since 2021, when she was able to secure a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage at 2.5 percent. Farrington eventually plans to move back to her hometown of Charleston, S.C., but she has little faith that her condo will sell swiftly when it goes on the market this summer. “These days, who is going to take on an 8 percent mortgage?” Farrington said. “I was fully in the camp of three rate cuts this year, but I’m not counting on any rate decreases and the Fed doing anything. That makes me very pessimistic, but then again, I’m a Catholic and a Red Sox fan, so I’m always pessimistic.” Life changes take a back seat A survey out last month from John Burns Research & Consulting polled prospective home buyers on what was holding them back from purchasing a home. Waiting for mortgage rates to decline was the top factor, eclipsing “waiting for a life stage change” as the No. 1 reason for the first time since the consulting firm began polling buyers in March 2023. “Historically, the number one reason that households move is life change,” said Alex Thomas, a senior research analyst at John Burns. “I’ve heard people call it the four D’s: death, divorce, diamonds, and diapers. That’s generally why people move. It’s not always primarily financially motivated.” Even mortgage rates hovering around the 7 percent mark are well below the north-of-18 percent figures seen in the 1980s, but buyers then were facing significantly lower home prices than today. Home prices broke records in March, according to the latest data from The Warren Group. Mortgage “rate lock” has several trickle-down effects, according to the FHFA: ‘Mortgage rate lock’ has prospective home buyers stuck ‘You’re going to pay more for the house . . . for the mortgage’ By Cameron Sperance GLOBE CORRESPONDENT The disparity between low mortgage rates that homeowners have on their current home and the significantly higher one they could get on a new property is turning US homeownership into a type of escape room from which millions can’t get out. Mortgage rates in mid-April jumped above 7 percent for the first time since November, a reminder of how they stubbornly remain elevated. Buyers were able to get 30-year fixed-rate mortgages below 3 percent as recently as 2021 — meaning rates have more than doubled in less than three years, according to Freddie Mac data. Ninety-six percent of buyers in the United States have a fixed-rate mortgage — and 63 percent of that group has a mortgage rate under 4 percent, according to a March report by the Federal Housing Finance Agency. That means a large buyer bloc simply can’t afford to move because, by trading their existing mortgage for a new one at today’s higher rates, homeowners would end up spending roughly $500 more per month under current financing terms. Ninety-two percent of Boston homeowners are experiencing mortgage “rate lock”; they are reluctant to give up their existing home and lower mortgage rate for a new property at today’s higher costs, according to Zillow data. “It’s pretty hard to trade up today. You’re going to pay more for the house, and you’re going to pay much more for the mortgage,” said Elaine Bannigan, a broker with Douglas Elliman. “That’s a pretty hard pill to swallow for that R Buyers can’t upsize or downsize R A lack of listings can drive up home prices, as people looking to buy and sell in Massachusetts have witnessed. Beyond the 30-year fixed But there are potential solutions and strategies for those willing to break from the mind-set that a 30-year fixedrate mortgage is the only way to buy a home. Today’s shoppers fall into three buckets, according to Bannigan: firsttime, trade-up, and luxury buyers. Luxury buyers often can pay in cash. Tradeup buyers can afford to stay put because their purchase is often discretionary. First-time buyers are changing their strategy. “They desperately want to buy, but they have had to readjust their expectations because they can afford less today than they would have at lower rates,” Bannigan said. “There’s such little inventory at their price points that these buyers have concluded that this is not their last house. Therefore, to make a plunge into the market, they recognize interest rates can’t stay this high forever.” Mortgage rates may be volatile, but home prices are steadily rising. It’s better to get in today, even at a less-thandesirable mortgage rate, rather than wait on the sidelines for prices to creep even higher, the thinking goes. These buyers are looking at different financing options, including adjustablerate mortgages that can be refinanced at — it is hoped — a lower rate when things settle. Relief won’t come overnight, but there are some signs of wiggle room to mortgage rate lock. “Everybody was waiting for this moment for the rates to come down, which really never happened,” said Susan Bevilacqua, a Wellesley-based realtor with Douglas Elliman who has seen buyer activity pick up in recent months. “My sense is that people are just tired of waiting, and they’re doing what they need to do to make it work.” Baby boomers who aren’t necessarily luxury home buyers — especially those in more affordable housing markets — also can be less vulnerable to rate lock because they’ve already built equity in their homes and paid off their mortgages. About 11 percent of baby boomer homeowners in the Boston metropolitan area are unaffected by rate lock, while nearly 38 of those in Pittsburgh are immune to it, according to Zillow. “At the start of this year, we saw a big increase in new listings in our data,” said Orphe Divounguy, a senior economist at Zillow. “Our research shows that the increase in new listings was mostly pronounced in the kind of retirement community where you have a lot of baby boomers who are mortgage debt free.” An increase in buying and selling in high-priced Wellesley and retirement communities around the United States might not be music to the ears of pricesensitive or younger buyers. But there is also an expectation that more affordable homes will eventually start to come back to the market as the broader buyer pool coalesces around a new normal. That likely won’t be a sub-3 percent mortgage rate. Rates might not come crashing down, but hopefully they won’t surge as quickly as they have in the past of couple years, either. “If we see less volatility, that’s going to be a good thing for the housing market,” Divounguy said.

H16 Address B o s t o n Sun d a y Glob e A P RIL 28, 2 0 2 4 In Massachusetts, it’s not unlikely to see one Dunkin’ in the distance while you wait in the drivethrough of another. Deeply woven into the fabric of New England, the chain’s presence can have a profound effect on the real estate that surrounds it. In their 2015 book, “Zillow Talk: The New Rules of Real Estate,” Stan Humphries, then the platform’s chief economist, and Spencer Rascoff, then CEO, wrote that homes near Dunkin’s and Starbucks have appreciated 80 percent since 1997. “Between 1997 and 2012, homes now located near Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts followed similar historical trajectories, substantially outpacing the overall home value appreciation,” they wrote. This was similarly noted in a 2018 Harvard Business School study examining housing price data and Yelp reviews, which determined that the entry of Starbucks and other cafes into a neighborhood is indicative of housing price growth. Katherine Kranenburg, a luxury marketing specialist and content creator, calls this the “Starbucks Effect” and said it’s a “total bonus” for real estate. “It builds a sense of community. You find out about things at a coffee shop,” Kranenburg said. “Some of the top people that I’ve gone to conferences with, if they’re traveling and they want to uDUNKIN' Continued from Page H1 know an area, they will go and sit at the coffee shop.” Samantha Stumpo lives next to a Dunkin’ and across the street from a Starbucks on West Broadway in South Boston, and hits one of the two daily. (“I eat a doughnut every day, but nobody believes me,” she said.) As a realtor, she believes having a restaurant establishment close by is better than open retail, which can make people feel “uncomfortable.” As a Bostonian, having both places nearby makes her “feel at home.” Of course, the benefits of living in the proximity of Dunkin’ aren’t New England-specific. Sarene Leeds, professional writer and host of the podcast “Emotional Abuse is Real,” lives in White Plains, N.Y., across from a Dunkin’ inside a Citgo station. Her 7-year-old daughter, Diana, loves the occasional visit to Dunkin’ for a chocolate-frosted donut with rainbow sprinkles. When the family visited Boston, they made sure to snap Diana’s photo in front of the Dunkin’ on Washington Street in Downtown Crossing. “She was like, ‘I really want to go there,’” Leeds said, “so we took a picture of her there and got her a donut. It was really special.” Despite the convenience, there are downsides to living so close to Dunkin’. Derek Camara, 36, is occasionally awoken between 3:30 and 4:30 a.m. by a dump truck attempting to fit down the alley to empty the garbage at the Dunkin’ behind his Dorchester home. Because a chain-link gate was installed at the alley’s entrance, drivers have a difficult time maneuvering their way into the space. “It’s literally a scene from ‘Austin Powers,’” said Camara, referencing the fictitious British spy’s attempt to perform a three-point turn. “I want to lose my mind.” Residents who live near Dunkin’ drive-through locations also must deal with traffic. Jillian McGrath, 29, found herself trapped in her parking space on Christmas Day because the drive-through line for a Dunkin’ stretched down the length of her Fall River street. “You would think people were home, but no, everybody’s out trying to get their coffee,” said McGrath, who works at a different Dunkin’, but hopes to attend medical school. “I was able to pull out after like 10 minutes.” In addition to the stench that overtook her building, or the time a pipe burst “and it looked like a swimming pool in our basement,” Miles said her “biggest gripe” is with the Dunkin’ customers “who have relieved themselves on their doorstep.” Because her home is so close to the Freedom Trail, tourists mistakenly assume that the Dunkin’ has a public bathroom. As a result, events like the Boston Marathon or Patriots and Red Sox parades result in discoveries of human waste on the doorstep. “It’s just sort of expected at those times that we find Dunkin’ cups full of urine or feces,” said Miles, who noted that it’s tourists and sports revelers she spots relieving themselves on her stoop. “We see quite a bit of vomit, too.” While there are pros and cons of living next to a Dunkin’, everyone we spoke to noted one thing: It’s extremely convenient. Kyle Hemingway, 36, a creative strategist, previously lived diagonally across from the Dunkin’ inside the New Store on the Block on Dorchester Avenue. Every morning, he’d glance out the window and witness the distinct New England beauty of a bunch of people with cigarettes in one hand and Dunkin’ cups in the other, watching the Keno numbers roll in through the window. If the line was so long it was streaming out the door, he’d skip his morning order. “That’s how I would gauge whether or not I was getting my coffee,” said Hemingway.

K Camping on city streets, open-air drug use, and crime are generating fierce pushback against harm reduction efforts like decriminalization. It doesn’t have to be this way. B y Tom Joudrey T here’s a rare class of Hollywood films so influential that they inject new phrases and archetypes into our cultural consciousness, many of which outlast the movies themselves. “The Matrix” gave us “red-pilled.” A “Sophie’s Choice” came to signify a crushing decision inevitably freighted with anguish. “The Godfather” made its titular figure someone other than a begrudging uncle at a baptism. “Bombshell” gave us the blonde and buxom midcentury ideal epitomized by Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroe. And lest this cinematic retrospective grow too dour, let’s not forget that under the spell of Jennifer Coolidge, “American Pie” bequeathed with surprising staying power that most indispensable of terms, MILF. Still, these examples pale in comparison to a film that is today almost exclusively remembered for its central conceit: gaslighting. To be fair, the concept of gaslighting — psychological manipulation designed to make the victim question their own sanity — only became widely known in the last decade or so. The valve releasing the term into the cultural ether seemed to abruptly open in 2013, and by 2022 it was Merriam-Webster’s Word GASLIGHTING, K5 Reading politics by ‘Gaslight’ JMH/ASSOCIATED PRESS gas·light (verb): the psychological manipulation of a person causing the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts, reality, or memories (Merriam-Webster). ver the past few years, drug policy reform has been on a tear. It looked as if the decades-long war on drugs was finally winding down. In the face of the most acute overdose crisis in our nation’s history, elected officials found a new willingness to try fresh approaches to reducing the fatalities, which have exceeded 100,000 each year since 2021. It was like a dam breaking. Harm reduction — a practice based on the idea that there is great value in keeping people who use drugs alive, disease free, and as healthy as possible even if they aren’t ready for full recovery — gained support at the federal level. Millions of dollars in grants were earmarked for services that had long been off limits, such as needle exchanges, to be disbursed by government agencies that had been barred from even using the term “harm reduction” in their public communications until recently. Cities greatly reduced the number of minor drug arrests made by police. States from South Dakota to Mississippi (including Massachusetts) legalized the strips that test drugs for fentanyl, the opioid up to 50 times more potent than heroin. Naloxone, the opioid overdose reversal medication, has been deregulated nationwide and made available over the counter in every state.

K2 Ideas B o s t o n Sun d a y Glob e A P RIL 28, 2 0 2 4 A braham Lincoln is so familiar to Americans that it takes a special book to let us see him in a new way. Such a book is “Magnificent Intentions: John Wood, First Federal Photographer, 1856-1863,” freshly issued from Smithsonian Books. Compiled by Adrienne Lundgren, a photo conservator at the Library of Congress, it takes us back, viscerally, to a time when Lincoln’s inaugural was far from certain. John Wood is not a well-known Civil War photographer. But this book establishes him as a critical eyewitness to our country’s darkest hour. As the first federal photographer, he had the job of taking pictures of infrastructure projects around the capital — especially the expansion of the US Capitol in the late 1850s. An earlier, smaller version of the Capitol had been designed by a Bostonian, Charles Bulfinch, who also designed the Massachusetts State House. Unfortunately, his dome leaked, and Congress demanded a replacement that would be world-class, to match America’s grandiose ambitions. The result was perhaps the most iconic structure ever built in this country, a permanent symbol of our democracy under construction exactly as it was cratering. Amazingly, the project was supervised by Jefferson Davis, then a senator from Mississippi, who oversaw every detail of a building that would house the government he was preparing to abandon and then attack. A remarkable photo captures him watching as a column is set in place, seven weeks before he resigned to lead the Confederacy. Lincoln, of course, was the anti-Davis, surviving an anxious transition before doing all he could to keep the country from falling apart. That included the completion of the new Capitol, where he came to assume the burden of the presidency before a large crowd on March 4, 1861. Four photos capture Lincoln’s inauguration in a way I have never seen, almost cinematic. The first three show the crowd streaming in before the ceremony. In the last image, the great man appears as a speck, ready to address the throng. Details jump out — people climbing up trees to get a better view, a water pitcher set out near the speaker’s table, a tuba player checking his instrument before the speech begins. The unblinking eye of John Wood misses nothing. Perhaps because he was an immigrant (from Lancashire, England), these photographs convey a keen sense that we should never take any of it for granted — neither the buildings nor democracy itself. Through his lens, we see it all coming together, pillar by pillar, frieze by frieze; an immense monument to ourselves. I found that quite moving, at a time when it is all too easy to throw stones. Ted Widmer is the author of “Lincoln on the Verge: Thirteen Days to Washington.” Moving on up Low-income households have been paying more and more for housing in recent decades, even adjusting for inflation. Are they getting their money’s worth or are they paying more for equally crappy places? Economists analyzed data going back to 1985 from the American Housing Survey, in which Census Bureau interviewers go to the same large sample of housing units every two years. The economists found that the condition, features, and size of the homes of low-income households have substantially improved, and that the typical low-income household now lives in a home whose quality is similar to that of the average household across all incomes in 1985. Hembre, E. et al., “A Rising Tide Lifts All Homes? Housing Consumption Trends for Low-Income Households Since the 1980s,” Journal of Public Economics (May 2024).

Then the researchers sent emails to the thousands of banks around the world that are connected to the international wire transfer publican one, makes it more likely that women-owned businesses in that congressional district will be awarded federal contracts set aside for small businesses. This amounts to a reallocation of billions of dollars to women-owned businesses, but it isn’t associated with worse contract terms or performance for the government. The effect increases over the congresswoman’s tenure and if she’s on a key committee. It is not explained by changes in the pool of available contractors. Brogaard, J. et al., “The Effect of Female Leadership on Contracting From Capitol Hill to Main Street,” Journal of Financial Economics (May 2024). Enlarging the pool of cops A small and shrinking percentage of the nation’s police departments, including Boston’s, require officers to reside within the city. One argument for the residency requirement is that officers should be representative of the city instead of being suburban commuters. A new study finds that, indeed, police departments became whiter after dropping their residency requirement. At the same time, however, these departments saw a significant decrease in fatal encounters with police, and the evidence suggests civilian complaints decreased too. The researchers say dropping the residency requirement tends to “be accompanied by a series of other reforms that might indicate an agency is proactively trying to improve police-community relations.” Payson, J. & Parinandi, S., “Residency Blues: The Unintended Consequences of Police Residency Requirements,” Journal of Politics (forthcoming). Mr. Smith goes to Washington A political scientist at Cornell University found that the pronounceability of a congressional candidate’s last name was associated with approximately one to two percentage points more votes in primary elections and somewhat less than that in general elections, even taking into account race, gender, name length, political party, incumbency, state, and year. For example, a primary-election candidate with the last name Porterfield would be expected to outperform an identical candidate with the last name Dovilla by at least one percentage point and an identical candidate with the last name Konetchy by three percentage points.

It was essentially a test of how diligently the banks follow “know-your-customer” regulations that are meant to prevent shady banking transactions. The good news is that only a small percentage of banks appeared to be lax in complying with know-your-customer standards. The bad news is that this percentage didn’t vary much based on the location of the shell company, even though many of them came from countries known to be riskier in this regard. So, as the authors note, “the ease of approaching many banks simultaneously online may mean that criminals seeking to access the international financial system anonymously can do so relatively easily.” Findley, M. et al., “Banking Bad?

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e Ideas K3 dents, women are more left-leaning than men. A Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression survey of 254 colleges and universities found that 55 percent of female students identify as liberal, compared with only 40 percent of male students. Interestingly, at schools ranked below 200 by US News and World Report, 45 percent of women and 33 percent of men identify as liberal. At top 25 schools, though, the difference is more pronounced, with 71 percent of women and 54 percent of men identifying as liberal. The gender-equality paradox can help to explain why the gender gap is largest at the most selective US colleges, where family income tends to be higher and sociopolitical equality tends to be especially highly prized. In an interview in The Times of London, the psychologist Steve StewartWilliams succinctly summarized the paradox: “Treating men and women the same makes them different, and treating them differently makes them the same.” There are a variety of possible explanations for the gender-equality paradox, but one prevailing view is that as societies become relatively more prosperous and equal, people more fully express their underlying traits and preferences. Of course, culture matters in explaining gender differences — just not in the way most people think. In less affluent and less egalitarian societies, gender differences in physical traits are flattened due to scarcity — that is, the shortage of food and other resources stunts growth, especially for men, leading to smaller physical disparities. Moreover, gender differences in psychological traits narrow in response to rigid social expectations. In the most equal nations of the world, it’s not harsh gender socialization by parents and media, strict societal expectations, or institutional forces that widen the differences between men and women. In the absence of dire poverty and strict social expectations, people are in a position to express their intrinsic attributes and preferences. The freer people are and the more fairly they are treated, the more differences tend to grow rather than shrink. Thus, we shouldn’t be surprised that Gen Z men and women are diverging along political lines to a greater extent than earlier generations did. Rob Henderson has a PhD in psychology from the University of Cambridge and is the author of “Troubled: A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class.” B y R ob He nd ers on I n most wealthy nations, women have been steadily closing the gap with men on several fronts. In the United States, women now earn the majority of the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees. Women now receive more than half of STEM college degrees, and the proportion of women in the tech sector has risen in recent years, to 35 percent in 2023 from 31 percent in 2019. Among Americans younger than 30, women’s earnings rival or even surpass men’s in many metropolitan areas, including Boston, New York, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. As these gaps have narrowed, we might have expected men and women to become more alike in other ways, including their cultural values and politics. Yet we are seeing the reverse. This is especially true when it comes to political orientation. Recent polls have highlighted increasing polarization along gender lines on various political issues. Since 2014, women younger than 30 have become steadily more left-leaning each year, while young men have remained relatively static in their political views. In 2021, 44 percent of young women in the United States identified as liberal compared with just 25 percent of young men — the biggest gender gap in 24 years of polling. In the Financial Times, John BurnMurdoch recently articulated this stark contrast in a piece titled “A new global gender divide is emerging.” He observes that while older women and men are similar in their political views, young women have veered sharply to the left of young men. Burn-Murdoch cites the influence of the #MeToo movement, suggesting it empowered young women to address longstanding injustices. The Washington Post’s editorial board suggested that such polarization is to be expected in the United States, “a large, unwieldy democracy.” The Guardian proposes that digital spaces and social media influencers are luring young people into disparate online platforms that cultivate more extreme political views. No doubt these all play some role. However, I’d like to propose an idea from my home discipline of academic psychology: the gender-equality paradox. This emerged as one of the most mindblowing findings that researchers published while I was pursuing my recent doctoral studies at the University of Cambridge. The paradox is straightforward: Societies with higher levels of wealth, political equality, and women in the workforce show larger personal, social, and political differences between men and women. In other words, the wealthier and more egalitarian the country, the larger the gender differences. The pattern exists not just for political ideology but also for things like academic preferences, physical aggression, selfesteem, frequency of crying, interest in casual sex, and personality traits such as extraversion. In all these categories, the differences have been largest in societies that have gone the furthest in attempting to treat women and men the same. Of course, there is an overlap for all of these attributes — aggression, for example, is a trait that both women and men can exhibit. But there’s less overlap — meaning greater differences — in more-equal societies. In China, which scores low on gender parity, the overlap between men and women in personality traits such as extraversion and openness to experience is actually very high, 84 percent. In the Netherlands, which is among the most gender-equal societies, the overlap is just 61 percent. More recently, a study of 67 countries found that although women generally tend to hold stricter moral views, gender differences in verdicts in hypothetical court scenarios are largest in wealthier and more equal societies. Specifically, women view misconduct more unfavorably than men in most places, but this difference in judgment is larger in richer and more equal countries. This gender gap has also been found for physical differences in things like height, BMI, obesity, and blood pressure. Across societies, men tend to be taller, heavier, and have higher blood pressure than women. But in rich and relatively equal societies, gender differences are particularly large. The gender-equality paradox might also help to explain why the gender gap in political orientation has grown among young people. One natural explanation is that young women are outpacing men in higher education, with men now making up just 40 percent of college students. Some evidence suggests that college tends to cultivate more liberal attitudes. However, even among college stuWhy are women becoming so much more liberal than men?

In 2021, New York City opened two overdose prevention centers, the first of their kind in the nation, where people can use drugs under supervision, be revived if they overdose, and get access to services they might need, including tests for blood-borne diseases like HIV and hepatitis. In January 2021, in the most historic and sweeping of these reforms, Oregon became the first state in the nation to decriminalize the personal possession of all drugs. But just as quickly as these changes came about, many of them are now coming undone. San Francisco is engaging in a series of police-led crackdowns in the neighborhoods most beset with addiction and overdose. Philadelphia’s leaders preemptively banned overdose prevention centers and are pledging to ramp up drug arrests and limit the use of opioid settlement funds from the Purdue Pharma case for harm reduction programs. Jurisdictions in Indiana, West Virginia, and New Jersey have shut down needle exchanges, and other municipalities are threatening to follow suit. Meanwhile, states are passing legislation that imposes harsher penalties for drug crimes involving fentanyl. In a reversal that made world news, Oregon recently re-criminalized drugs after Portland’s mayor and the governor declared a state of emergency for a skyrocketing increase in overdoses and open-air drug use. It will set decriminalization efforts in other states back by years, if not decades. Before going further, I should air my own views. I am a professor of medicine and public health who researches the government’s response to addiction. I also spent more than two decades as a police officer. Both of these experiences have convinced me that harm reduction and evidence-based drug policy reform are what we need to reverse the overdose crisis. The war on drugs has been an enduring and monumental failure, afflicting Black and brown Americans out of all proportion, not to mention drawing the nation’s police officers into an endless cycle of futility and burnout. Drugs are as accessible as ever and have only gotten more potent — increasing people’s risk of overdose and making it harder for them to recover and lead stable, productive lives. Yet we have to acknowledge the emerging narrative that drug policy reform has failed. Critics can point out, accurately, that the nation’s drug overdose rate remains as high as ever. In fact, overdose deaths greatly increased after decriminalization in Oregon. I don’t think the change in the law is the reason for that increase — research my colleagues and I have carried out strongly suggests this overdose trend has much more to do with the wave of fentanyl that fully hit the Pacific Northwest in 2021, just as decriminalization was taking effect. But in any event, the overdose statistics are not what is driving the widespread rollback of reforms, most of which haven’t been in place long enough to be accurately evaluated. What people are really upset about is disorder in the streets. An overdose rate is an impersonal statistic, not an experience. What most people do feel directly and acutely, however, is what it is like to walk down the street or take public transportation in their own neighborhoods. Of late, in many cities it has become an alarming journey marked by encounters with people deep in the throes of addiction. If there has been one blind spot among drug policy reformers, harm reduction activists, and their allies in the halls of government, it is the need to compassionately — but effectively — address the highly disruptive consequences of public drug use and to take heed of how resentful a community gets when problems are left to fester. If the public disorder that results from open-air drug use goes unaddressed and people conclude drug policy reforms played a role, history suggests those reforms are in danger. The decades I spent in a police uniform showed me how true that is. As a precinct commander in the New York Police Department and chief of police in Burlington, Vt., the most contentious problems I faced occurred when everyday people felt they weren’t able to use their streets, parks, subways, and buses with equality, safety, and peace. Nothing vexed and angered my constituents more than the feeling that someone else’s unchecked behavior made them second-class citizens on their own sidewalks. Although I hope a wide range of drug reforms will endure and that others will expand, I have been holding these desires in tension with the government’s unmistakable duty to broker — and when necessary, enforce — the fair and reciprocal terms of social cooperation in our nation’s public spaces. It is a democratic right of access owed to everyone in the present, not a promissory note about a future time when sweeping reforms will bear fruit. In other words, we all deserve to freely use our public spaces and feel safe doing so, and the reality is that open-air drug use and encampments make city streets feel less safe, and in turn inaccessible. It’s not just pearl-clutching The reporting out of Portland illustrates this tension. Decriminalization greatly reduced indefensible racial disparities in policing drugs and made it clear that addiction was a public health problem, not a crime or a moral failing. Decriminalization was intended to complement a vast increase in access to DRUG REFORM Continued from PageK1 treatment that was only beginning to take shape when Oregon decided to reverse course. Part of the problem was that Oregon explicitly stripped its police of the power to physically remove a person from a public place for drug use. When a person was semiconscious in public with a needle in their arm, apart from voluntary medical treatment, the only recourse Portland’s police officers had was to hand the person a civil ticket with a fine they could easily ignore. Once that ticket was served, the legal expectation was that the officer would depart and leave the person to their own devices. Most of the time, this amounted to continued drug use in the same spot. The change in tenor on the city’s streets was palpable. Stories emerged of people feeling scared or at least deeply uncomfortable walking around downtown and then avoiding the city center altogether. Small businesses felt abandoned to the disorder outside their storefronts, and police said they were powerless to do anything about it, which was largely true. Cab drivers passionately regaled their passengers from out of town with accounts of the city’s civic decay. My friends from Portland who visited me on the East Coast opened their conversations with tales of feeling unsafe in their own downtown and alienated from the reforms they once championed. They wondered if the responses to addiction I studied and believed in were enabling the problem to continue. The reaction from the most progressive wings of the drug reform effort has been to discount these concerns as petty bourgeois pearl-clutching: Cities are gritty, we are in the midst of a terrible crisis, and a daily dose of other people’s struggles just might wake people up to the suffering of those around them. Reformers would say the problem is best solved by addressing its root causes: the need for treatment, housing, mental health care, and employment. But these dismissals are unfair to the communities contending with the loss of their public spaces today, and those communities are voting accordingly. Seeing an unconscious person lying in the street is legitimately alarming, whether they are injured, asleep, high, or overdosing. It makes children visibly distressed and for good reason: They sense that something dangerous and unusual is happening in front of them. It triggers human instincts in all of us about peril and also conflicting urges to intervene or get away. Add to this the physical obstruction posed by people living in the street, in tents or in the open, doing the intimate and vulnerable things normally done in private, and you no longer have a community where people of modest means have fair, democratic access to their community’s public spaces. Some might become inured to this over time, but you can’t just ask people to ignore or change how experiencing these things makes them feel. Of course, the people who always bear the greatest consequences of social problems are the poor and working class. In US cities, they are usually Black, Hispanic, and recent immigrants already facing disinvestment in their neighborhoods and a host of other challenges. They have little choice but to rely on public spaces to go about their lives, from public transportation and crowded sidewalks to public parks and open areas for recreation and exercise. The affluent, on the other hand, are deft at finding ways to limit their exposure to places that make them uncomfortable, with refuges in doorman buildings, single-family homes, private transportation, and luxury gyms, to name a few examples. One of the main points of affluence is to insulate oneself from the need to depend on other people’s cooperation in public. In Philadelphia, the political movement against the expansion of harm reduction programs is being led by city councilor Quetcy Lozada, the Democrat who represents Kensington — the city’s deeply impoverished epicenter of public drug use and the associated disorder. It is also overwhelmingly a community of color. Following Portugal’s lead The public-order problems of drug use loom large in urban electoral politics. However, none of the existing efforts to restore fair access to public spaces will address the overdose crisis or do justice to people with addiction who need resources and support. If cities expect to help reduce our nation’s overdose crisis and not simply ride a policy pendulum back and forth between election cycles, their leaders need to enact compassionate, effective drug policies and ensure fair access to public space at the same time. Anything less is political whack-a-mole. True progress will therefore require balancing two needs. One is for deep and sustained investments not only in harm reduction and treatment but in things that address the reasons why people relapse or become addicted in the first place, such as mental illness and homelessness. If this approach succeeds, our urban public spaces will again become more vibrant and inviting over time. The second is the need for safe and secure public spaces for everyone in the meantime. The prospect of eventual success must be balanced with the fact that residents also deserve those conditions today, are right to demand them, and will vote accordingly. In the short term, this involves policing. But not all enforcement is created equal. When police remove a person from the street for drug use or the crimes that feed an addiction, an option is to link them directly to services and treatment. By doing that, they are addressing the problem with a much more effective tool than a night in jail. To truly benefit all residents, police must do much more than simply make arrests. Boston’s 2023 response to the sprawling homeless encampments at Mass. and Cass was an initial attempt to thread this needle. It was uncertain where the displaced would continue to get the services (sterile needles, medical treatment) provided by outreach workers at Mass. and Cass — services the area had become known for. But the sidewalks were cleared without making arrests. That is a start, but more can be done. Transformative change means combining effective policing with the resources to help people break out of the harmful cycles that so often come with addiction. Such a system is precisely what Portugal enacted when it decriminalized drug possession over two decades ago. Its police still take people into custody, but the government uses that as an opportunity to provide free, effective addiction treatment and services rather than level the type of minor criminal charges that accomplish so little. The police bring their suspects in front of a commission whose purpose is to dissuade them from doing drugs by providing them with the means to stop, free of charge. If a person refuses this opportunity repeatedly and poses an intractable problem, only then does the government transition to escalating criminal penalties. Compared with our worsening morass, Portugal has seen success at policing its public spaces while keeping addiction and overdose in check. Only hubris and a sense of exceptionalism prevent us from learning from that country’s experience. We can’t rely on activists, advocates, and reformers to strike this type of balance, because it’s not their job, and if one group gains outsized influence it can easily result in imbalanced policies that lead to backlash. On one side, some activists have worked their entire adult lives to stop an inhumane war against people with addiction. They need to push the limits of reform as far as they can, forcing us to expand our beliefs about what is possible. On the other side, there are residents who deserve accessible civic spaces. They aren’t wrong when they insist that reducing the harms of addiction shouldn’t come at great expense to a city’s public spaces or even, in some cases, its public safety. Politicians and public officials must strike the right balance between competing rights, the different ways to honor them, and the tradeoffs that will inevitably be a part of whatever they do. After all, that is their job. Brandon del Pozo is an assistant professor of medicine and public health at Brown University.

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e Ideas K5 B y Ad riana Bart on I n the depths of the Nether — the eerie underworld of the video game Minecraft — 10-year-old Ivan darts through a maze of passageways to a torchlit chamber he calls his “secret room.” Past rows of pews, he reaches a series of wooden signs he has made. Written in pixels are things he loved doing with his dad: Walking in the woods. Staying up late playing video games. Making a wooden shield. Ivan’s father died of a seizure-like illness two years ago. (His mother asked that I use only Ivan’s first name.) Ivan built his secret room deep in the Minecraft underworld so no one else would see it. But he knows exactly where to find his chamber of happy memories — and to receive comfort if any sadness wells up. Minecraft is a Lego-like virtual environment where players team up to cobble together cities, raise digital farm animals for food, and build fantasy castles in the sky. Ivan and other children are processing grief with support from a clinical therapist who meets them in a private area of the wildly popular video game. Unlike violent shooter games, such as Call of Duty, Minecraft has been adapted by therapists as a tool to connect with children coping with mental health problems and to encourage social development in kids with autism. About two years ago, Meaghan Jackson, a certified music therapist based in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, wondered if this game might enhance her work with grieving kids. What if they could express their feelings about a death — and discover they’re not alone — through group discussions and creative activities in their favorite video game? Jackson developed the concept with support from her employer, the Lumara Grief and Bereavement Care Society, a Canadian nonprofit that offers counseling and camping retreats for bereaved families. Launched in July 2022, the Minecraft Virtual Support Group for Grieving Kids is for children aged 7 to 12 who have experienced a loss — most often of a parent, sibling, or other close family member. Jackson acknowledges that most kids already get plenty of screen time. But compared with in-person groups she has led for nearly two decades, “it is a lot easier to hold kids’ attention in Minecraft,” she says. In this familiar virtual world, children feel safe, she says, and “they are the experts.” The Minecraft program, which has not been formally studied, is on the cusp of growing efforts to meet grieving children where they are — namely, online — and to respond to their urgent need for care. One in 12 US children will lose a parent or sibling by the age of 18. This rate, calculated by the widely cited Childhood Bereavement Estimation Model, reflects a sharp increase in deaths from accidental drug overdose, gun violence, and COVID-19 from the start of the pandemic until 2021 (the most recent year for Minecraft realm.” So far, very little research has been done to evaluate the long-term effects of online programs for bereaved children — or to identify which online models are most supportive for those with different needs. However, research does show that the vast majority of bereaved children will not need intensive individual psychotherapy, says Julie Kaplow, a professor of psychiatry at Tulane University School of Medicine and executive director of the Meadows Mental Health Policy Institute’s Trauma and Grief Center in Houston, which conducts research on childhood trauma and loss. What they need, Kaplow says, are healthy tools for coping with grief — ideally, starting in the first few months after a loss. Such tools include learning how to identify and regulate their emotions, turn unhelpful thoughts into healthy ones, and ask for support when they need it. In a randomized controlled trial published in the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry in 2023, children who learned these skills in an intervention called the Family Bereavement Program were 67 percent less likely than those in a control group to have developed clinical depression 15 years later. But in the study, all 12 sessions of the program were in person. With an aim to reach more kids, Kaplow is putting together an online version of this intervention with its codeveloper, Irwin Sandler, a research professor emeritus of psychology at Arizona State University. They plan to investigate whether an online coping program, to be launched in a few years, can replicate good outcomes for grieving children. In the meantime, Jackson hopes to interest researchers in the Minecraft model. The five-day program is not designed to be a “one and done” intervention, she adds. Each month, Jackson runs a two-hour meetup in Minecraft for children who want to come back. Like adults who lay flowers on gravestones, she says, children find comfort in visiting the online memorials they’ve built. Ivan has kept in touch with the program for more than a year and a half, says his mother, Ariella. After his father died, bedtimes were especially hard for Ivan. “Being alone in the dark would trigger a tearful wave of missing [his dad],” Ariella says. In the Minecraft group, she says, Ivan discovered that “other kids experience grief too.” Besides support from family and friends, Ariella says, the Minecraft program has been Ivan’s main outlet for recording his memories of his dad and expressing his feelings about the loss. Creating a secret room dedicated to his father “was reassuring” for Ivan, she says. “It’s his thing — a representation of his love. It’s also somewhere he can go back to,” she says, “and that has been really helpful.” Adriana Barton is a Vancouver-based journalist and the author of “Wired for Music: A Search for Health and Joy Through the Science of Sound.” Can Minecraft’s virtual world help grieving children cope with real loss? which such figures are available). To join the five-day Minecraft program, each child needs a device for playing the video game online and a separate screen for talking on Zoom. The group’s private realm has space for eight or nine kids who log in from their homes across Canada. At the start of each two-hour session, the children’s avatars gather in Minecraft around a crackling campfire. The first day, the children are quiet, unsure of what will happen next. So Jackson asks a simple question and doesn’t push for more. “Who are you remembering?” Many kids say, “Pass.” And that’s all the grief processing they’ll do that day before running off to build a digital tree house or play an avatar version of hide-and-seek. Over the next four days, the children build structures and objects in the game tied to memories about the person they have lost: a brother’s baseball mitt, a mom’s favorite car. Or the music player Ivan added to the secret room for his dad. Just as adults find solace in making slideshows for a wake, making things in Minecraft helps children understand that even after a person is gone, their memories and feelings about that person — good and bad — hold meaning, Jackson says. Being able to name the person who has died can help children begin to accept a loss, she says. Midweek in Minecraft, Jackson introduces the massive brick Memory Wall, where kids who feel ready will write the person’s name. Some might decorate the name with a simple candle, or not at all. “But usually they go all out — we’re talking flowers, fireworks. They end up looking like little shrines.” Conversations bubble up. When Jackson asks a child what they used to call their parent or relative, another might say, “You called your dad Dada? I called my dad Dada — wait, how old were you when he died?” Exchanges like this help the children know they’re not alone. While the kids are placing bricks or mining for flint, Jackson doubles as “DJ Nutmeg,” spinning songs by request. Music helps calm the nervous system, she says, and “holds space for difficult moments.” The kids’ favorite hits include “Believer” by Imagine Dragons. Asked how the song makes them feel, a child might say, “I don’t know. I just like it.” But the question plants a seed. Later, when they’re on their own, the kids remind themselves I can listen to this song. Beckett Sherwood, 12, was the first to work with Jackson in the game. He started a year after his father died of stomach cancer, when Beckett was 9 years old. Before meeting Jackson, says his mother, Melissa Sherwood, “he had a really hard time talking about his father’s passing.” But being in the “safe, familiar” Minecraft environment “made it seem not so scary and difficult,” she says. Months after joining Jackson’s Minecraft program, Beckett constructed a giant monument online emblazoned with his father’s name and the words “best dad ever in the world.” Melissa says it’s been healing for Beckett to keep coming back as the group’s peer mentor, building maps of the realm to orient new kids and showing them how to make a boat or house. “He feels proud knowing he is helping other kids.” Beckett says most kids open up by the end of the week. “They’re more chatty.” On day five, the children scurry to fulfill their final mission: a guided tour of the structures they have built. Typically, at least one child will opt out, “which is fine,” Jackson says. But more often, she’ll see a child start the week not wanting to say who they are remembering — and five days later, “passionately explaining this beautiful memorial they built for that person.” Jackson says the children’s responses to the Minecraft group have blown away anything she has seen in her 17 years of working with grieving kids. Before, she never had kids “beg to spend more time in a grief-processing group,” she says. “But it’s happening in this ROB DOUCET Meaghan Jackson, a music therapist in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, uses Minecraft in therapy sessions with children who have lost a loved one. of the Year. Gaslighting — now Taylor Swift’s go-to term to denigrate male entitlement and Natalie Maines’s (of The Chicks) truculent lyric to excoriate her two-timing husband — has become so pervasive in describing relationship grievances that it has eclipsed its 80- year-old namesake entirely. “Gaslight” was a suspense thriller directed by George Cukor and drawn from Patrick Hamilton’s 1938 play “Angel Street.” A 1940 British film adaptation preceded Cukor’s version, but MGM, the American production studio, conspired to clear the runway for its own film by having all prints of the 1940 one destroyed. (Spoiler alert: Like its beleaguered heroine, it survived.) But it is only in the Hollywood version that the female lead, played by Ingrid Bergman, became the psychological focus of the film, as a woman teetering on the edge of hysteria. The plot is set in motion by a shocking murder: An orphan girl, Paula Alquist, races down the stairs to find her aunt, a world-famous opera singer, lying strangled on the floor. The case goes cold, but a decade later Paula is swept up in a whirlwind romance with her piano accompanist, Gregory Anton, who cajoles her into returning to her aunt’s long-dormant London townhouse. Once there, Gregory adopts a mien of protective pity even as he shreds her sense of reality. He dims the gaslights in the house but denies it, and then deludes her into believing she’s lost an heirloom brooch and that she purloined a precious painting. Soon enough, Paula is awash in uncertainty and wondering if she’s lost her marbles. It’s that villainously manufactured epistemic crisis — the thought of someGASLIGHTING Continued from PageK1 one ripping out the underpinnings of your basic sanity — that thrilled audiences and anchored the film’s legacy. But “Gaslight” is far more interesting than its one-note reputation. What gets strangely forgotten is that the act of gaslighting is actually built on the even more gutting fear of home invasion. What we learn by the film’s end is that Gregory Anton is actually the same man who murdered Paula’s wealthy aunt but was forced to flee before he could discover the whereabouts of her precious jewels. Undeterred, he went on to stalk, court, and marry Paula to regain access to the townhouse, seize the jewels, and, with Paula consigned to an insane asylum, snatch away the remainder of the estate. While gaslighting is a sinister tool in the villain’s arsenal, the deeper paranoia reflected here is about having our households waylaid by a nefarious, smooth-talking intruder. To understand why the home invasion plot hit with especially resounding force in the early 1940s, we have to recollect the high-stakes geopolitical context of the era. “Gaslight” uses home invasion as a proxy for the fear, rampant during World War II, of domestic infiltration. The fear, put simply, was that the borders of the nation — the homeland — could be breached by spies who might infest communities and even families. If that fear was palpable in 1944, it was because the threat was real. Starting in the mid-1930s, Nazi Germany had launched a highly coordinated operation to steal US military secrets, map US defense systems, and undermine American solidarity through racist and antisemitic propaganda. The agents burrowed in like moles. One opened a restaurant. Another worked at an airline. Others worked for delivery servicstep back and reflect on how this trope as a political weapon can be a dangerously double-edged sword. It was, after all, the fear of domestic infiltration that drove President Franklin D. Roosevelt to forcibly relocate more than 125,000 Americans of Japanese descent into mass internment camps. In fact, to rewatch “Gaslight” in the 21st century is to experience an unnerving recognition of how the threat of domestic infiltration has been taken up as a powerful cudgel by populist demagogues. In Asia, Prime Minister Narendra Modi consolidated support in India by casting his country’s Hindu majority as the “true sons of the soil” and tarring the Muslim minority as foreign invaders. In Europe, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán endorsed the Great Replacement Theory to stir fears that native Eastern Europeans are being marginalized by an influx of Arabs and Jews. Politicians in Spain’s Vox party have called for the “permanent militarization of the border” to stave off an immigrant “invasion.” Meanwhile, here in the United States, former president Donald Trump has repeatedly inflamed fears over an “invasion” of caravans of Mexican immigrants. Make no mistake: “Gaslight” should get props for birthing the concept of gaslighting. But that bit of trivia egregiously undersells the film’s subterranean political allegory. No film better distills our primal fears of nefarious home invasion and, by extension, the populist appeals to nativism that are now commonplace. So if you overhear the canard that gaslighting is the main takeaway from “Gaslight,” here’s the right clapback: Don’t gaslight “Gaslight.” Tom Joudrey is a Pennsylvania-based writer who covers politics and culture. Follow him @TomJoudrey. es. All this would get exposed in the splashy trial of a group known as the Duquesne Spy Ring, whose activities remain the largest espionage case in American history. The spy allegory never breaks through to the film’s surface, but the parallels are clear. Gregory Anton has a foreign accent, uses an alias, holds a prior loyalty (he’s already married to someone other than Paula), and sabotages Paula’s sense of security. All these factors code him as a treacherous infiltrator in ways that would have resonated in an era of wartime paranoia. “Gaslight” contains a triumphant undercurrent of patriotic zeal, and that’s part of what makes the defeat of Gregory Anton and his accomplices so satisfying. But it’s also important to BRITISH NATIONAL Ingrid Bergman, Angela Lansbury, and Charles Boyer in a scene from “Gaslight,” George Cukor’s 1944 film.

Caitlin Clark, the first overall pick in the 2024 draft, will probably make the roster of the USA Women’s 5x5 basketball team. Second overall selection Cameron Brink is competing for a role in the Women’s 3x3 team. This comes on the heels of the 2024 NCAA Women’s Basketball tournament, which set a record with 12.3 million viewers for Iowa vs. Louisiana State University, featuring Clark against another incoming WNBA athlete, Angel Reese. While Boston does not have its own WNBA team yet, TD Garden will host a game in August between the Los Angeles Sparks (with Brinks and fellow first-round draft pick Rickea Jackson) and the Connecticut Sun, which drafted Leïla Lacan from France as the 10th overall pick. The addition of “household names” to the WNBA — and the added visibility of the US Women’s Basketball teams in the Summer Olympics — presents a golden opportunity for the league’s growth. ADAM SILBERT New York Although I almost never agree with Jeff Jacoby’s positions or his choices for the subjects that apparently seem to him to be the most urgent, I want to commend him for his column making so clear the vast difference between the conservatism of William F. Buckley Jr. and that of MAGA conservatism (“The man who made conservatism fun,” Ideas, April 21). I believe that Jacoby is correct to reject implications that Buckleyism spawned Trumpism. I would add one observation to that of Jacoby’s note that Buckley stood for respect for constitutional norms, for American internationalism and reasoned debate. In particular, regarding Buckley’s famous support of articulate, reasoned debate on his political show “Firing Line,” Buckley invited the leading liberal minds of the day to joust with him and his team of conservatives. Such notable liberals as George McGovern and John Kenneth Galbraith were routinely brought on to debate the political issues and philosophies of the day. Despite a no-holds-barred intellectual format, it was always clear there was mutual respect among all participants, each searching by their own lights to meet the needs of our society and open to the free debate of ideas. The contrast with the MAGA movement could not be more clear. I usually found the liberal point of view to be the most persuasive and wished that Buckley, as a self-proclaimed devout Roman Catholic, had more of Jesus’ concerns for and identification with the poor, women, orphans, prisoners, and the migrant wayfarer, but I cannot overlook the point of view of anyone who would use Bach’s Second Brandenburg Concerto as a theme song for his show. ROBERT G. BILL Quincy Seconding Jacoby’s view of William F. Buckley Jr. What a difference a day makes when reading the Globe. When I saw Saturday’s online Metro section headline, “Judge orders $1 million to be returned to Mass. man,” it initially caught my eye because I thought it was going to be a happy lottery story. Instead, it was about John B. Wilson, who has been largely cleared in the Varsity Blues scandal, recouping his $1 million. I hadn’t heard of Wilson before reading the article. But what grabbed my attention was him saying “we did nothing wrong in donating money to colleges and getting a tie-breaker boost in the admissions process.” Not sure I’d want to flaunt that. Just because something is legal doesn’t make it ethical. Then the Sunday Ideas section publishes Ben Conniff’s thoughtful piece, “I benefited from legacy admissions. Universities should get rid of them.” He reflects upon lower-income, marginalized kids who excelled in the same ways he did but who “required a strength and determination I never needed. I am sure one of those applicants did not get into Yale because a place was held for me.” His humility is a breath of fresh air. Congratulations to Wilson and the recovery of his $1 million. I hope he’ll consider donating some of it to a scholarship fund. ELLEN DEGENOVA Cambridge Law, ethics, and humility GLOBE STAFF/ADOBE Shaun Cammack’s piece on kids and screens (“Engage your wild child. Don’t sedate them with a screen.” Ideas, April 21) was both thought-provoking and humorous. Neither accusatory nor defeatist, Cammack succinctly points out the new reality of raising young children in the current era of constant screen exposure. Not only do we have to be wary of abusing the pacifying nature of an iPad or smartphone to “sedate” our naturally wild children as he describes (“I think we might be putting kids in digital cages. No wonder they are not all right”) but a glance around any park or family venue shows that the lure of the screens in our pockets keeps our own attention away from the precious and fleeting small events of early childhood. The significance of this novel monkey wrench thrown in on early socialization should be worrisome to anyone who recognizes the innate need of infants and young children to be “seen” and to feel their own authenticity and value through the eyes and ears of their first caregivers. My own children, raised more than 20 years ago, rarely had to compete with a technological device for their parents’ attention, and it concerns me to think what it might mean that we have a generation of babies growing up having felt second-fiddle to the dazzle of smartphones. DR. LAURA J. PERRY North Weymouth FaceTime or face time with our children? fghijkl F o unded 1872 A decade ago, Massachusetts’ public state universities, excluding the University of Massachusetts system, boasted enrollment of nearly 45,000 students. Last fiscal year, enrollment dropped below 35,000. The state’s community colleges, which had about 64,000 students in fiscal 2014, have seen an even more drastic decline to fewer than 37,000 students in fiscal 2023. While there are steps Massachusetts can take to boost enrollment, like increasing financial aid and expanding early college programs, public colleges also need to adapt to the new reality. Fewer students means less money, unless schools significantly raise tuition, and less of an ability to sustain a full complement of programs. It has long been a political third rail to talk about consolidating any of the state’s 29 public higher education campuses. But given enrollment trends, there needs to be a serious conversation about whether state universities and community colleges can find ways to work together more effectively as a system to lower costs while continuing to offer a robust menu of degree programs. “We’ve got to be willing to contemplate the possibility that right-sizing the system is going to create more opportunity and higher quality for those who need it most,” said Ben Forman, research director at MassINC. The think tank has called for a legislative commission to explore campus consolidation as a way to address the fiscal challenges caused by enrollment drops. The last governor to propose a drastic restructuring of public higher education was Mitt Romney, who in 2003 proposed merging six public colleges into three, moving toward privatizing three schools, and dividing the colleges into regions with regional governing councils. But Romney’s plan was politically unpopular and drew a powerful foe when it sought to eliminate the office of then-UMass President William Bulger. It never advanced; since then, consolidation has been treated by political leaders as a dirty word when it comes to higher education. But there should be politically palatable ways to explore, if not consolidation, ways to better share services and create efficiencies. This does not necessarily mean closing campuses, each of which provide important economic engines to their communities and attract students who live in their region. It could mean consolidating back-office functions or administrative duties, or sharing faculty and academic programs. The most straightforward first step would involve hiring a consultant to determine if merging functions like accounting, payroll, human resources, financial aid, or others would save money and be logistically feasible. There are already limited ongoing efforts to do this, but there are likely opportunities to expand. The University of Massachusetts system, for example, has saved an estimated $112.6 million since fiscal 2020 by centralizing procurement and bill-paying that had previously been done separately on each of its five campuses, according to UMass senior vice president for administration and finance Lisa Calise. Calise said the university was able to get better pricing on supplies and services because it had greater buying power, and it saved money on staff by consolidating five procurement and accounts payable departments. The university system is now exploring consolidating contracts for maintenance and repairs. Calise said UMass would be open to having other state universities join its procurement efforts. More than a decade ago, state universities and colleges formed their own initiative, the Partnership to Advance Collaboration and Efficiencies, through which the schools band together to purchase contracts and services like insurance, energy, and information technology. PACE laid off its only two employees amid budget cuts in 2020, although it continues to be run by the trade associations representing state universities and community colleges. A more ambitious — and potentially more rewarding — initiative would explore what it means to share faculty or academic programs. For example, if only a handful of students at each university are interested in an Italian language class, could colleges split the cost of hiring an Italian instructor who travels between campuses, or who teaches a class remotely to students on multiple campuses? If a college cannot afford a cybersecurity professor who commands a high salary, could campuses share the cost and have the professor teach a class online or one broadcast into multiple classrooms? One radical example of how this could work is the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, where officials in 2017 began the process of merging six universities into two. Chancellor Dan Greenstein said the review was prompted by demographic shifts. Fewer students were attending Pennsylvania’s public colleges, and colleges were struggling financially, laying off staff, and cutting degree programs. Greenstein said each university kept its physical campus and its sports teams, but academic and administrative departments merged. Majors were redesigned so students in their first two years have mostly in-person classes but more advanced students and those in specialty disciplines have more online courses or courses taught via simulcast, where a professor lecturing in one classroom is broadcast to students on all three campuses. Greenstein said this allowed universities to bring back classes they could not offer individually, with fewer faculty. The universities built digital libraries that were accessible to every campus and hired career counselors specializing in different industries and regions who were available to all students. “Scale matters in terms of ability to deliver higher quality student-facing services at a lower unit cost,” Greenstein said. “In Massachusetts, like in Pennsylvania, not every university can afford [to teach] Celtic poetry. There’s not enough demand. … But I bet universities working together could afford Celtic poetry.” Vermont recently consolidated three public four-year institutions into one university. Connecticut is merging 12 community colleges into a single institution with multiple campuses. All these states have experienced bumpy transitions, with dips in enrollment or operational challenges, and their success is not assured. Nate Mackinnon, executive director of the Massachusetts Association of Community Colleges, said the fact that every state has a slightly different higher education structure suggests that “there is no perfect model.” But the fact that so many states are considering these types of mergers suggests old models need to be revisited. Massachusetts policy makers, faced with declining student enrollment, should begin having these conversations. Consolidation shouldn ’t be a dirty word for public universities

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e Ideas K7 B y Brend an Rub er ry M y college roommate was a bookie. Our sophomore year, he and another kid pooled a couple thousand dollars and took bets from our classmates using lines they pulled from ESPN.com. It was real “momand-pop-type stuff,” as my former roommate puts it now. Everybody knew everybody. Only once was he ever stiffed by a customer. He knew that this client, whose dad worked at the “Worldwide Leader in Sports,” ESPN itself, could pay. But time passed and he didn’t pursue it. My roommate did well for himself, and the book closed after graduation. We still see each other regularly. I mention that to make clear up front that I’m not morally opposed to gambling. His operation was fairly modest. The business only grew by word of mouth. And bettors were limited — by the paltry wages of on-campus gigs, by what remained of their summer internship money, and by whatever allowance mom and dad were willing to front. And, after all, there was a ceiling to the risk my buddy and his partner, hardly barons themselves, were willing to take on, lest the whole shop go bust on one bad break. The vigilance of on-campus authorities meant that everything had to be done discreetly. But if those same bettors were in college today, they’d have much greater freedom to wager money on sports — and they’d make a much bigger target for the bookies. In 2018, the Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision in Murphy v. National Collegiate Athletic Association struck down the 1992 congressional ban on sports betting championed by two-time NBA champion and then-US senator Bill Bradley. What’s happened since then shouldn’t come as a surprise, because you’re living it. Now legal in Massachusetts and 37 other states, sports betting has become deeply normalized. So has its ubiquity — unbidden odds, enticements, and celebrity-driven advertisements are plastered everywhere. And it’s not really a secret who these commercials are aimed at: men, mostly young and often suffering from an acute awareness of their own low status in society. It’s normal for your 20s to be a period of painful growth, but these days, it seems that men are struggling more than usual. Falling rates of male post-secondary enrollment bear this out. Richard Reeves at the Brookings Institution has written a lot about how men, on average, have not responded well to changes in our economy: The outsourcing of heavy industry and increasing automation have eliminated much blue-collar work. And college-educated men, who may be finding the rat race less than it was cracked up to be, are hardly immune to feeling dead in the water. The near-term result is lots of directionless men with time and energy to spare. Here’s where gambling comes in. And it gets its foot in the door by posing a very simple question: What if you could change your fortunes overnight? “The truth is, you’ve won too much,” Vince Vaughn tells Tom Brady in a recent Super Bowl ad for BetMGM, before NHL legend Wayne Gretzky pops in, for good measure. “Let others have their turn.” Similarly, a DraftKings spot featuring Kevin Hart that aired during the 2022 Super Bowl offers a guarantee: “The crown is yours.” Neither commercial admits the possibility of failure. Hold on a second, you might be thinking. Surely, bettors must know they’re taking a risk by definition? That’s the whole point, right? “The house always wins.” True, except that to play in many cases is literally to win or at least not lose, because the first bets most users will place these days are genuinely risk-free promotional offers. There are also bonus bets, site credit giveaways, deposit matches, profit boosts, rewards programs, referral bonuses, and more. Every advertisement, by every company, makes such offers. Why are the companies so generous? They consider the initial avalanche of free bets and boosted odds nothing more than what’s known as customer acquisition cost. Inevitably, some players will take their free bets, pocket the money if they win, and quit on the spot. But many more will take their free bets and, no matter if they win or lose, find they’ve acquired the taste to play again. Then they’re off to the races. Betting advertisements play expertly on the parts of ourselves that wish to be daring, spontaneous, and victorious. They remind me of nothing more than the 2021 cryptocurrency bonanza — also famously risk-free, until it wasn’t — and the wall-to-wall advertisements geared at getting you to dump your modest savings into $GORILLA. “Fortune favors the brave,” declared Matt Damon in a much-maligned ad for Crypto.com, possibly intending to stir our dreams of Rome (for some reason) before speeding off in a flying saucer, or however it ends. Anyway, if you bought crypto at that point you probably took a bath. Gambling ads pull a lot of the same tricks. They traffic in grandeur and celebrity, and no one can dispute that they’re manipulative and expressly designed to be. It’s a little banal even to point it out, but they almost exclusively feature incredibly famous and good-looking men, mostly athletes and movie stars, who have reached the pinnacle of worldly success by having excelled at something that has nothing at all to do with wagering money on the outcome of sporting events. The 2024 Super Bowl, both the first to be played in Las Vegas and the most-watched TV event in US history, featured only three betting ads — deliberately capped at that number by the NFL. This was clearly meant as a sop to the no-fun crowd, allowing the NFL to say “See? Gambling hasn’t taken over.” It was also tacit recognition that gambling ads are bad or that the advertisements are beginning to annoy people and it’s desirable to have fewer of them. (Of course, the tens of millions of children watching at home were subjected to zero ads for, say, flavored nicotine or tobacco products.) Americans went ahead and wagered a record $23 billion on the outcome anyway. Betting advertisements rely on a timeworn playbook, a simplistic and reassuring story that the world comprises thinkers and doers, losers and winners, and that the doers are the winners. With the advent of legal mobile betting, ubiquitous and never farther away than one’s fingertips, the opportunity to take large risks for dubious rewards has never been easier to come by. As it is, men in their early 20s appear to be uniquely predisposed to taking big risks, prone to overestimating their odds of success and underestimating the costs of failure. Researchers have called it the “young male syndrome.” Since the act of placing a bet has now become frictionless, those who are addicted need only the smallest nudge to get back in the game. Calls to the New Jersey problem gambling helpline have nearly tripled since 2018, and the largest demographic happens to be men aged 25 to 34. Research suggests that it may take years for a problem gambler to seek treatment, which means many of those callers have had their habits for years. Incidentally, the industry seeks men out when they are several years younger than 25 to 34. In 2022, The New York Times reported that sportsbooks have partnered with universities including Syracuse, Michigan State, and Louisiana State to invade email listservs and inundate students with betting enticements. True to form, the industry professes safety, but many of the students receiving these offers are underage. The 2018 Supreme Court decision was made in a vacuum. Its effect has been to allow betting companies to do far more than merely bring little bookmaking operations like my college roommate’s into the light. Mobile sports betting and constant promotions have induced new demand, completely transforming many spectators’ relationship to sports. One of the 38 states that have legalized sports betting in some form — Kansas — has even rolled out extensive subsidies for sportsbooks, at the industry’s behest. More states seem poised to legalize betting. It’s possible that the level of betting has yet to reach its peak. Here’s how to restore some balance It’s easy to look at the dramatic changes that have taken place since 2018 and to try to conjure up equally dramatic solutions, like a new federal betting ban along the lines of the 1992 law. That’s extremely unlikely to happen — state governments are not eager to forgo the billions in annual gambling tax revenue they now receive. Lawmakers should, however, stop to consider that they’ve made a trade-off, that there are social costs attached and that they’re not negligible. What we should instead aim for is a golden mean of targeted regulation, somewhere between clamping down entirely and letting it rip as we’re doing now. For bettors who simply can’t help themselves, public health-minded lawmakers ought to add friction to the process. Jay Zagorsky at the Boston University Questrom School of Business suggests that players no longer be allowed to fund their betting accounts instantly over Venmo and other online payment services. Instead, they’d make deposits into the betting apps only with cash that they put up at a bank or a retail seller of lottery tickets. That would allow bettors to continue playing as long as they’re in the black, but if they bottom out, they’ll have to get off the dopamine roller coaster and engage in a brick-and-mortar transaction. In the UK, “whistle-to-whistle” bans on betting ads during games have shown some encouraging results in reducing the number of children exposed to these enticements. And in Australia, a national self-exclusion register — which stops bettors from placing wagers and prohibits companies from enticing them — has seen 18,000 sign-ups in its first six months. It’s past time to begin experimenting with approaches that have shown results elsewhere. The betting industry has seen exponential growth since 2018, and because gambling addiction isn’t visible in the way that drug overdoses are, there will surely be some lag before we know the true scale of harm. It’s also possible that people can suffer financial ruin even without being addicted to gambling in the clinical sense. Doing anything at all is superior to the current approach. If we can’t return to the way things were, then we can at least make it easier for problem gamblers to help themselves and give others the chance to avoid being pulled in.

Sports betting is out of control RICH POLK/GETTY IMAGES FOR SPOTIFY FanDuel gave free bets to users who correctly predicted whether Rob Gronkowski would make a field goal. her to power. Sheinbaum’s opponent, Senator Xóchitl Gálvez, a former tech entrepreneur, is also the product of backroom politics. Leaders of pro-business parties chose her as the best face for their opposition. She appears more conservative than the left-leaning electorate and has failed to capture the public imagination. Although she has repeatedly promised not to cut the social benefits that AMLO has showered on the poorer classes, not all voters believe her. Behind all these questions for Mexico and its voters lies the reality of drug cartels. Using their wealth to bribe officials and their ruthlessness to wipe away enemies, they have established themselves as the country’s real centers of power. Only their disorganization and internal rivalries prevent them from effectively ruling all of the country. Yet at press conferences, AMLO sometimes shows little sympathy for victims of drug-related violence. He seems more interested in questioning the homicide rate than in holding killers accountable. During his six years in power, AMLO has eliminated checks and balances, consolidated power in the presidency, and maintained full control of Morena, the party he has led to electoral dominance. One of his main tools for carrying out his agenda has been the army, which now owns hotels, airports, and other businesses, and has colluded with the cartels. Mexican presidents have zigged and zagged on the question of how to confront the threat that drug cartels pose to the state. Sometimes the policy is to crack down, other times to make deals and cooperate. Neither has led the cartels to curb the murderous violence that has become part of their business model. Cartels serve the US market, and most of their weapons come from the United States, but some in Washington blame Mexico for the scourge of drugs on American streets. A few have even suggested that US forces should bomb drug processing labs in Mexico. If Sheinbaum is elected, she will have to deal delicately with Washington on this emotional issue. Perhaps even more emotional, and more politically potent, is the challenge of migration. Mexico’s next president will have to decide how fully to cooperate with the United States on projects to prevent migrants from approaching the US border. This will be challenging under any circumstances but possibly explosive if Donald Trump is elected in the United States and makes threatening demands of Mexico. Claudia Sheinbaum is poised to be an important symbol for Mexico, Latin America, and the world. The job she is likely to hold for the next six years, however, is daunting. Stephen Kinzer is a senior fellow at the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University. M exico, renowned as the epitome of machismo, is about to elect a female president. On a recent visit, I asked several women if they thought this will change their country’s macho ethos. All gave me the same one-word answer: ¡Ojalá! It translates as either “Hopefully!” or “If only!” Both candidates in the June 2 election are female. The winner will preside over a nation of 130 million that is full of potential but deeply troubled. Several people I met happily shared their opinions about the upcoming election but then added something to the effect of “It doesn’t matter. Narcos rule the country.” That may be an exaggeration, but just barely. Entire regions of Mexico are out of the control of the central government. Law officers, journalists, and political candidates who challenge the power of drug lords are assassinated. Perpetrators are almost never found. Corruption reaches the highest levels of government. Despite all of this, the current president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, universally known as AMLO, is widely popular. He has challenged the country’s traditional elites, increased social benefits, and emerged as a highly successful populist, even as he has taken steps to undermine the country’s democratic institutions. The constitution bars him from seeking a second term, but his popularity allows him to coronate a successor. He has chosen one of his longtime associates, Claudia Sheinbaum, who until last year was mayor of Mexico City. Today Mexico is plastered with campaign posters showing AMLO and Sheinbaum arm in arm beneath the slogan “It’s Claudia.” The president is sending a clear message: If you like me, vote for her. “It’s practically a reelection,” one young man told me. AMLO has promised to retire from politics when his term ends, but since he has been a politician for his entire adult life, some doubt his resolve to stay away. Sheinbaum owes her large lead in opinion polls to his endorsement. For years she has been among his most faithful disciples and now he has crowned her his heir apparent. That is likely to propel her to the presidency. Whether she will be able to govern independently of him remains to be seen. Sheinbaum is the granddaughter of Jewish immigrants from Lithuania and Bulgaria. She holds a PhD in energy engineering and has published dozens of scholarly articles on topics related to energy conservation and sustainable development. Ever since her college days she has been active in left-wing causes. Her background positions her to become a thoughtful and environmentally conscious president. Or another bulwark of Mexico’s increasingly authoritarian political system. Or both. Mexico has never resolved the question of presidential succession. During the rule of the Institutional Revolutionary Party, which lasted for more than 70 years, presidents chose their successors. Beginning in 2000 there were competitive elections. Now Mexico is back to Plan A. Sheinbaum will assume the presidency as the beneficiary of a tap on the shoulder. She may have little incentive to democratize the system that is bringing Mexico is about to get its first female president. But how much change can she create?

K8 Ideas B o s t o n Sun d a y Glob e A P RIL 28, 2 0 2 4 B y Lee McColgan A grizzled New England contractor hired me to help fix old historic buildings. At the Mayflower Society House in Plymouth, my three-foot crowbar pried off wrinkled clapboards and sheathing, kicking up dust and exposing heavily hewn beams. At the Winslow House Museum in Marshfield, doors sagged from centuries of wear. Gravity and subsidence pulled at them until they rubbed against the jambs or shuddered across the floor. Locks and latches had fallen out of alignment. The Louisa May Alcott Orchard House in Concord suffered from damaged plaster, and the Old West Church in Boston from weary window frames. My framing chisel and cutting tools hacked away damaged sections like a dentist excavating cavities. New wood replaced the old, and intricate carpentry patched the pieces together. A few strategically placed wedges restored old doors to plumb. My wood plane shaved a little off the top and the sides, like a barber, allowing me to adjust the hand-forged hinges so the doors swing cleanly again. I troweled creamy plaster paste across ceilings, spreading it smooth. My work clothes — dusty, tattered, torn — wear the evidence of my efforts. Countless dots of plaster, paint, and other materials assemble into something like a Pointillist painting by George Seurat or a Jackson Pollock abstraction. I had never planned to fix old houses. For years, I was a salesman. No 10-year-old boy ever says: “When I grow up, I want to be a dealer marketing services representative!” That kind of job results from a long chain of pragmatic events. Every day, I slid a razor across my face, a daily ritual that grated it raw. A comb neatly aligned the mess of hair on my head, sweeping the strands into place. The collar of my white dress shirt formed crisp triangles. Strategically pinching the shiny silk of my tie produced a perfectly symmetrical dimple in the center. In the financial services industry, it’s important to look trustworthy. I had grown up building things deep in New England’s sun-scattered forests: crude structures out of fallen branches against a boulder covered with pine boughs, for instance. Friends and I stacked stones to dam brooks, stuffing sticks and twigs into the gaps to create small pools in which to escape the sticky summer heat. From the bank, we dredged silty clay and shaped it into simple bowls. None of these experiences working with minimally processed, natural materials prepared me for a career in the financial sector, but the dreams of childhood often yield to the practicalities of adulthood. That’s how I found myself interviewing at an investment firm. My entry-level customer service job at a large mutual fund company started on the phone. Corralled into chest-high cubicles, a cluster of young professionals repeated the pleasant cadences of a scripted greeting in endless loops throughout the day. We fielded calls, one after another, like songbirds squawking at the neighborhood cat. We answered all calls the same way. Soon, the same chipper tone infused my voice when I talked to friends and family, as if they, too, were potential customers. Next came learning how to give proper sales presentations. Our small team of reps gathered in conference rooms that served as sterile appendages to the main sales floor. The fluorescent lights flickered. Vinyl tabletops and polyester carpet emitted the rubbery smell of new plastic. A faint hint of ammonia remained from the janitor’s work the night before. Low-level managers wearing thin veils of confidence put us on trial. They ordered us to stand before the group and give canned pitches for elaborate financial products. Our hands trembled. Faces turned red. One after another, we sputtered the presentations. On occasion, someone froze, left to sweat it out in uncomfortable silence. Sometimes, a manager rattled a cup of change, calling embarrassing attention to every filler “um” or “uh.” In this emotional vacuum, we learned how to speak professionally and how to dress for success. Established employees openly ridiculed cheap clothing bought from discount racks, which, on my barely livable salary, I had done. “Dress for the job you want, not the job you have,” they repeated in cold, tiny circles, a human manifestation of the polish that I rubbed into my shoes until they gleamed. Gradually, I began to shine, too. Promotions came slowly, but they came. The role spat me into the field. The never-ending quarterly cycles called for in-person meetings in my assigned territory in the state of Nebraska. Disposable wipes and a tiny vacuum that plugged into the cigarette lighter kept my car spotlessly clean in case I drove a client to lunch. Years of working in finance came with prosperity but wore me down. Planning sessions, meetings, and recaps filled the days. Spreadsheets of data tracked my efforts and their results. My mind wandered, daydreaming about change. My weekends turned to building projects, transforming raw materials into finished products — real, tangible objects with presence and weight. Looking at them convinced me that the time had come. Deep in my gut, a growing feeling told me to jump. I walked away from my career in sales. For the first time in years, I felt weightless — free. But now what? Memories of those crude, natural constructions from my childhood led me to the world of preservation. Working on old buildings allowed me to relive my childhood on a grander scale. Thinking of those rough leantos in the mountains connected me to my past. These old, imposing structures — monuments that draw a line through time — connect me to a much larger, broader past. Historic preservation pays a lot less than the money business, but following my instincts felt right: no regimented dress code, no corporate jargon, no nerve-racking pressure to act a certain way. My work spoke for me. The grizzled contractor and I tackled the bones of these relics, often spongy, rotten, and riddled with holes from busy insects. With the slightest prodding, the wood disintegrates, especially ground-level window sills, which absorb the most moisture, especially near the Atlantic. At the ocean’s edge in Cohasset stands a brick oil house, a shed-size building that once stored fuel and maritime supplies. Its masonry was crumbling into dust. Our chisels and hammers chipped out the decaying mortar. With thin trowels, we filled the gaps with fresh material, strengthening the bonds between the brick layers to withstand whatever the future holds in store.

B y A daira Landry M y patient was in his early 60s and recently retired. He had led a life anchored by dutiful work. Like so many of us, he had hoped retirement would bring him the space to truly live. In retirement, he thought, life would feel buoyant. He took me back to his final day of work, when he and his wife had their first taste of freedom after his last customer call. They took off for a drive, reveling in their newfound agency. He had waited decades for this. The moment sounded flirtatious — old-school rock music pounding on the radio, hair tangled in the wind, stolen glances between the pair. No more rushing past each other in the mornings. No more late nights of work. No more weekends at the office. On that joyful car ride, they were headed to discuss the results of his recent medical tests with the family doctor. A few weeks prior, he had complained of nausea and back pain. His doctor wanted to rule out gallstones and kidney stones. “Just to be careful,” the doctor assured him. Yet within an hour of retiring, my patient sat in front of his family physician and received a diagnosis of aggressive, metastatic cancer. He had worked his whole life just to earn one hour of freedom. We fell silent, as if the moment he was diagnosed was the end of his story. There was nothing to do but cry, so I did. Physicians are observers of the ill and dying. We gather patient stories through passive listening and active probing to inform our care. If we’re lucky, a patient story offers us an insight we hadn’t realized we needed. My patient’s story highlighted a harsh truth about work: You may plan for retirement, but there is no guarantee you’ll be healthy enough to enjoy it. When I met my patient, I was in the midst of a young adult’s version of a midlife crisis. As Annie Dillard wrote in her 1989 book “The Writing Life”: “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.” Work consumed me — my job became who I was as a person. I had three academic positions and was working extra clinical shifts to save for a house. I had a newborn, a toddler, and aging parents. My stress was set at the highest possible level. My patient’s story was the page break my career needed. I truly loved my patients and colleagues, but I had to fix something and I didn’t know where to start. Life felt like a highway with no rest stops or vistas. I missed birthday parties, school performances, weddings, and funerals because of work. I told a recurrent lie: “Next week, work will be better.” I said this so often that it started to feel true. The problem was not unique to me. Self-sacrifice is baked into the American work ethic, and the medical profession is no exception. A colleague of mine, Dr. Al’Ai Alvarez, has built his career around supporting professionals along their wellness journey. He told me that everything we value has an expiration date — our health, our challenges, and our successes. I thought of my own children and how often they hear “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Their answers are tied with aspirations of employment: doctor, teacher, engineer. We have conflated dreams of growing up with dreams of employment. We don’t ask small children what character traits they hope to develop. We don’t ask them what hobbies or personal skills they want to gain. We don’t ask them where they’ll seek joy. We ask them what they want to do for work. Children are born into this culture. Adults often die in this culture. Social Security advises me to work until I’m 67 years old, a gamble when the median age for a cancer diagnosis is 66 and the average age for a heart attack is 66 for men and 72 for women. Members of underserved and marginalized communities encounter these same health risks at younger ages. The system is literally designed for some to work themselves to death or disability. I didn’t want my patient’s story to be mine. I started with small changes that made my entire life feel more in my control. For my physical health, I walked more often — feeling grass under my feet, incorporating stretches, and breathing fresh air. I ate more whole fruits and vegetables, less red meat, and eliminated soda from my diet. I told myself I don’t need a perfect life, but I do want a long one. When my finances allowed, I cut back the number of shifts I worked — the extra money wasn’t worth the physical toll on my body. For my mental health, I aimed to decrease stress and seek happiness intentionally. I created stronger boundaries between work and home — and made sure to limit meetings on evenings and weekends. For my social health, I focused on cherishing conversations — with family, friends, and my patients. I began spending more time on my hobbies — writing and gardening — and resting on days off. It’s easy to get caught up in the idea that your entire human value is determined by income, position, and loyalty to work. But the reality is we all want the same things at the end: to feel loved, make an impact, and have time for ourselves and our loved ones. The hardest part of my job is seeing dying patients regret not living enough. I wish I could personally thank my patient for showing me that the value of life is today, not tomorrow. I reflect on and revel in the joy that a patient has changed my life. And now, possibly, yours.

How do words feel? That’s what “In What Way Wham?

Grigely, 67, has been deaf since a fall at the age of 10 robbed him of the world of sound he had, like most hearing people, taken for granted. Its loss was both profound, and fertile ground for an artist with an active mind and an absurdist worldview. Of everything contemporary art has asked us to contemplate in recent years — hard political realities, forgotten histories, and the role of privilege in shaping culture — the perspective of disabled people has rarely been among them. That’s changing. In recent years, the disability arts movement has gained ground, bringing fresh takes on a world largely beyond the grasp, and view, of the non-disabled. But the strength of “In What Way Wham?” is in its deeply personal, affable pathos, and in Grigely’s lightly provocative sense of humor.

Madonna GLOBE STAFF Whenever Handel and Haydn Society concertmaster Aisslinn Nosky leads the ensemble through a full performance of J.S. Bach’s six Brandenburg Concertos, audience members often comment something to the tune of ‘I can’t believe it was such a long concert.’” “And, of course it’s a long concert,” Nosky said in a Zoom interview from New York. “There’s one million notes in this concert!” Usually, people really mean that the two hours have flown by, and she’s not surprised. In these pieces, said Nosky, “there’s always something new to look at, to see, to hear.” When it comes to traditions, H+H’s calling card is Handel’s “Messiah,” which it has performed every single year since 1854. However, in the past decade, a performance of the complete Brandenburg Concertos — led by Nosky and H+H principal keyboardist/associate conductor Ian Watson — has also become a regular item on the season lineup, often selling out houses. This week, they’re doing the cycle three times, with performances at Sanders Theatre at Harvard University (May 2 and 3) and New England Conservatory’s Jordan Hall (May 4). “There’s something that seems to really attract audiences about this idea of the complete set,” Nosky said. like Bach studied rhetoric — “the art of speaking well” — and Nosky sees those principles manifest in the score. “They’re trying to create a conversation with the instrumentalists, and it can be hard to have a conversation with someone actually, literally, standing in your way,” Nosky said. The audience can also “be even more easily drawn in” when there’s no conductor, she said. “They see us indicating to each other, gesturing, cueing.” Some have told her they enjoy watching the musicians’ facial expressions; others even say they hear the ensemble breathing together. Nosky has a particular soft spot for Concerto No. 3, which includes three each of violins, violas, and cellos opposite continuo. She favors a quick tempo, and with her H+H colleagues, “it’s like driving a sports car,” she said, and paused. “I don’t drive sports cars, but I imagine that’s what it would be like!” Concerto No. 6 is also special to her, albeit for a different reason; she doesn’t play in it, and so can enjoy the sound of the low strings. “That combination of instruments has such a beautiful sound color,” she said. “Even though I’m not on stage, I’ve always got my ear smooshed up against the back, listening backstage.” A.Z.

What’s more, when H+H performs the Brandenburgs, it’s not “a case of trying to polish up relics,” Watson said in a phone interview. “It’s more about using the instruments to kind of re-create that white-hot moment when they were first minted.” The Brandenburg Concertos were almost definitely not composed as a set. Though each is a concerto grosso, which contrasts a group of soloists against supporting instruments, each calls for different instrumentation, and the exact composition dates of each piece are unclear. In 1721, while working at the court of Prince Leopold of Anhalt-Köthen, Bach sent the set to the Margrave of Brandenburg, perhaps hoping for a job offer. However, there are no records of the pieces having been performed at Brandenburg, and they fell into obscurity. They were only rediscovered and published in the mid-19th century, almost exactly 100 years after Bach’s death. Now, the concertos are some of the most recognizable works of the Baroque period. The complete set has been recorded hundreds of times since the technology became available. One movement from Concerto No. 2 was included on the golden record that was shot into space aboard the Voyager space probes. “I think these pieces are a combination of catchy, memorable, and virtuosic, in a way that is pretty rare,” Nosky said. Because there’s so much variety in the sound, there’s “never a moment to become bored as a listener,” and there’s plenty of visual activity on stage as well. “One moment you’re watching a couple of string players and a flute,” said Nosky. “Then the next there’s these crazy horns on stage, with three oboes. And the gambas show up, and everyone’s like ‘what’s that?’” Each concerto has “its own character, and its own rhythmic life,” but overall, the music has an “inherent energy,” said Watson. “Once you tap into it as a performer, you basically ride the wave.” He’s played the Brandenburgs so many times that he rarely needs to consult the scores, exceptfor Concerto No. 6. This is somewhat less frequently performed because of its unusual instrumentation, Watson said; two violas, two viola da gambas, and continuo — the section that provides the bassline, usually via a harpsichord and a low stringed instrument. H+H performs these pieces without a conductor, with Nosky and Watson leading the ensemble from within. When they do that, Nosky said, it’s “a more fluid and intimate way of making music,” and it especially suits the Brandenburgs because Baroque composers Why two hours of Bach keeps selling out the house The Handel and Haydn Society’s annual run through his six Brandenburg Concertos has become a crowd favorite HANDEL AND HAYDN SOCIETY May 2 and 3, 7:30 p.m., Sanders Theatre, Harvard University, Cambridge; May 4, 7:30 p.m., NEC’s Jordan Hall. 617-262-1815, www.handelandhaydn.org TABLES It’s almost Mother’s Day.

Why: Your people are Portuguese and you need to see if the sweet bread is legit. You recently traveled to Portugal (and wish you were still there) or are planning to go soon. You are looking for a new date night somewhere stylish but not stuffy. The backstory: Baleia is the latest from the Coda Group, which is also behind Gufo, the Salty Pig, and SRV. As such, it is a departure from a steady diet of Italian fare. The restaurant’s name means “whale” in Portuguese. Despite its high ceilings, Baleia feels warm and golden, with Dijon yellow banquettes, black-and-white tile floors, and netdraped lights. Executive chef and partner Andrew Hebert has worked at Gufo and the Salty Pig, as well as Jody Adams restaurants Porto and Trade. What to eat: The menu specializes in upscale, cheffy takes on classic dishes like salt cod bolinhos, shrimp Mozambique, and the seafood-pork stew cataplana. The bolinhos, crisp and light seared cod and crispy potatoes in a caldo verde-inspired sauce, and zesty grilled piri piri chicken with fries. There are dishes here for the vegetable-focused diner, too: roasted cauliflower, grilled mushrooms, a charred eggplant with harissa and saffron rice. For dessert, it’s hard to resist pasteis de nata, egg tarts. What to drink: A cocktail inspired by Portugal like a Port-and-tonic, or a Sagres beer, might hit the spot. Then explore the Portuguese wine list, ranging through the country’s regions and grapes. The takeaway: A pretty room, good service, and a well-conceived menu: Baleia hits the mark for anyone in need of a nice dinner (or a quick holiday in Portugal). 264 E.

N4 B o s t o n Sun d a y Glob e A P RIL 28, 2 0 2 4 By Mark Feeney GLOBE STAFF WINCHESTER — As a title, “Traces of Existence,” the show currently at the Griffin Museum of Photography, could apply to pretty much any aspect of the medium. Among many (many) other things, a trace of existence is what each and every photog r a p h is. T h e s how run s through June 9. Here the title refers to matters of home, identity, and migration. Each of the five photographers with work in the show — Muriel Hasbun, Alejandro “Luperca” Morales, Rodrigo Valenzuela, Ileana Doble Hernandez, Alejandro Cartagena — is Hispanic. In a sensible curatorial decision, all wall texts are bilingual. Griffin director Crista Dix curated the show. Muriel Hasbun is a Salvadoran immigrant. “Traces” includes 18 images from her “Pulse: New Cultural Registers” series. Alnic activity. Symbolically, the lines connect Hasbun (and the viewer) to Hasbun’s homeland. Practically, they’re a distinctive visual element, harkening to grids, schematics, and, yes, barbed wire. Hasbun also has a video in “Traces,” describing a final visit to her dying father and how they made paper boats together. She invites museumgoers to make their own (materials are provided). Spread across the floor is a colorful and charming array of boats made by viewers of previous exhibitions of the video. Boats made by Griffin visitors will be added over the run of “Traces.” Alejandro “Luperca” Morales was born in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. That fact is pertinent because he has a pair of videos in here showing the Paso del Norte International Bridge, between El Paso and Ciudad Juárez. One is a live stream from the MURIEL HASBUN Visual Arts ALEJANDRO MORALES At the Griffin, more than just ‘Traces ’ Five photographers explore home, identity, migration though these works are photographic, they look like paintings: adjacent to Surrealism, spectral and often slightly eerie, hovering between abstraction and representation. Is that the outline of a whale there? A set of torsos here? A sleeping, or dead, body? The works are all the more striking for being subdued, even recessive, in appearance. “Pulse” takes its title from the fact that the images incorporate lines from seismic readings from El Salvador, documenting earthquakes and volcaPHO T O G R APHY REVIEW TRACES OF EXISTENCE At Griffin Museum of Photography, 67 Shore Road, Winchester, through June 9. 781-729-1158, griffinmuseum.org ILEANA DOBLE HERNANDEZ ALEJANDRO CARTAGENA bridge’s walkway, the other a loop of excerpts culled from the stream. Both are, in effect, surveillance footage. The experience of watching is at once hypnotic and unsettling. Of the five artists’ work, this is the simplest visually. It’s hardly simple otherwise, touching as it does— presenting as it does — immigration, deportation, and inequality. Morales notes that the bridge cameras belong to the same network as the El Paso Zoo’s. He does not belabor the point, leaving it to museumgoers to draw their own conclusions. Born in Chile, Rodrigo Valenzuela lives in Los Angeles. The six examples from his “New Land” series are large-scale desert scenes. On those scenes, he superimposes lines, planes, and structures. His work recalls that of John Pfahl in its juxtaposition of landscape with human artifice. Emptiness becomes a kind of ghost settlement. The dry, dun landscape becomes an extension of geometry, or perhaps the other way around. The work takes on a further dimension, insofar as this is terrain associated with the attempted border crossings of undocumented immigrants and a history of violence going back to the Spanish Conquest. Valenzuela is the Griffin’s first Cummings Fellow. His duties include working with student s a t W inche s t er H igh School, which is a short walk from the museum and has a vigorous tradition of student photography. A self-described “artivist,” Ileana Doble Hernandez was born in Mexico and currently lives in Boston. She has work from two series in the show. “Los Gringos” consists of 14 colo r dipt y ch s o f s t ree t life throughout the United States. They frequently contain text (signs, banners). There are five lightbox transparences from the other series, “Pollage” (a mashup of “politics” and “collage”). Where the diptychs are lively, the transparencies go beyond that, with their frenetic content and garish appearance. Alejandro Cartagena was born in the Dominican Republic and lives in Mexico. He repurposes vintage vernacular photographs in two ways. With the larger group, in “Traces,” he removes the sitters’ faces, a commentary on identity, absence, presence, and disappearance (a word with a grim and weighty history in Latin America). One such distressed picture would look bizarre. A dozen would make a telling point. There are many dozens here, which rather dulls that point. The other group consists of three arrangements of vintage black-and-white studio portraits of unidentified people. The portraits are various shapes and sizes, with several dozen within each frame. The idea is to convey “erasure through multiplicity.” That sure sounds like echochamber artspeak. For at least this viewer, there’s an echo of Walker Evans’s 1936 “Penny Picture Display.” That photograph shows a sign for a Georgia photo studio, consisting of 225 thumbnail-size portraits. “I look at it,” Evans said, “and think , and think , and think about all those people.” Sometimes art manages to join with democracy, making traces of existence that enlighten, extend, and maybe even endure.

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e N5 PHOTOS BY JONATHAN WIGGS/GLOBE STAFF Choreographer and choreorobotics professor Sydney Skybetter teaching a seminar on robotics, AI, and performance in Brown University’s Robotics Lab. Visual Arts By Cate McQuaid GLOBE CORRESPONDENT PROVIDENCE — Students in Sydney Skybetter’s class “Choreodaemonics: Fleshy Bodies, Artificial Intelligences, Parasitical Performances” at Brown University spend a lot of time sitting and talking theory. But earlier this month, they visited Skybetter’s robot dance studio in the school’s computer science building to dance with Spot, a robotic quadruped made by Boston Dynamics. Skybetter, a choreographer and associate professor of theater arts and performance studies, researches the nexus of dance and new technologies. The host of the podcast “Dances with Robots” and founder of the Conference for Research on Choreographic Interfaces recently spoke at the Mahindra Humanities Center at Harvard. The class mimicked Spot’s stretching, stamping, and twisting. “It felt like recess,” one student said. Skybetter agreed. But there was more to it. “Today,” he said, “we played with a surveillance tool.” Where to find him: www.skybetter.org/ Age: 41 Originally from: Skybetter’s parents were peripatetic journalists. “My parents’ superpower was to always find the ex-Soviet bloc ballet instructor no matter where in the country we were.” Lives in: Providence Specializes in: “Dancers and choreographers and roboticists and technologists are constantly thinking about design and how their work interfaces with other humans,” Skybetter said. Their passions meet in choreorobotics. Often, emerging tech “comes from places and design priorities that are not in everybody’s interest,” he said. “When these AIs become embodied, when they perform, a lot of the tacit racism or ableism or misogyny of these technologized spaces becomes apparent.” In contrast, as a choreographer he trained in contactimprovisation. Participants are always in physical connection. The form, Skybetter said, “requires constant languaging around consent and power and flow and possibility.” How he started: After the choreographer received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from New York University, 9/11 and the 2008 recession made landing dance jobs difficult. “I had to find other forms of work,” Skybetter said, including starting a web design company. “I always was curious about the intersection of art and technology. I’ve always lived there on some level.” What he makes: “I make articles, I make speeches, I make teaching plans. I make facilitation structures, I make code, I create space, I produce others, I curate. I work in collaboration and coalition. These are all choreographic phenomena. The nature of my work is centering bodies all day.” The final frontier: “Dance is literally grounded in a particular orientation of our bodies relative to the planet. In space, let alone on the moon or on Mars, there are different gravitational thresholds that will totally architect what kinds of sociality and performance and culture are even physically possible. The next step is indeed microgravity choreorobotics.” Advice for artists: “To play with these technologies is to be implicated in their development. Understand thatimplication. Managing your implication is itself a creative endeavor.” Cate McQuaid can be reached at catemcquaid@gmail.com.

One contains a collection of notes on white paper, calmingly neutral; the curving walls of the other display square scraps of vibrant color, pink to green to yellow to blue. They’re linked by a doorway, so you can pass easily between them. No guidance is offered as to whether color, or lack of it, is one of Grigely’s communication tools. The titles of each space offer no further insight, only that the pale one, called “White Noise (monochrome)” and dated 2000, is older; its parallel, in color, “White Noise (polychrome),” 2023, was made for this show. And the experience of them hardly differs; in the time I spent drifting between the two, people lingered in each, laughing softly to themselves as they picked their way from note to note. But, I think it’s not wrong to consider the shift, more than 20 years on, as emblematic of an evolution of Grigely’s internal world, the artist building richness into the silence. The exhibition is a visual echo of the texture and scale that sonic experience creates for the hearing that’s as foundational as solid ground. His attempts to build that texture are inspiring, and at times gutting. Just outside “White Noise (polychrome)” are a pair of works that speak to the simmering frustration of a master communicator denied a principle tool. “Between the Walls and Me,” 2023, feels like an eruption of exactly that, with a chipped stone bust of Grigely himself lying amid the rubble of drywall punctured and gouged all around it. “What the Stress Amounts To,” 2023, snakes from the floor to near the rafters some 30 feet above. It’s assembled from the colorful bands of aluminum seals from countless wine bottles, a monument to self-medication. But Grigely, I think, doesn’t want your sympathy. His work is an open invitation to expand your consideration of the world — the immediate, physical world — to a perspective outside your own. Poignant good humor is his main weapon. His “Songs Without Words” series of roughly clipped music reviews, scanned and blown up to reveal words torn from margins and otherwise far from whole, describe the chasm between knowing and experience that is his daily life. Imagine, for a moment, if your only connection to music was to read about it. “Craptions,” a series of screen captures from closed-captioned TV shows and online videos, defines his absurdist good nature more directly. “Lilting glockenspiel music” reads one, over footage of a bomb exploding in Crimea during the war in Ukraine; a KRAKOW WITKIN/AIR DE PARIS/JON VERNEY Visual Arts KRAKOW WITKIN/AIR DE PARIS/JON VERNEY nothing preachy, pedantic, or accusing about it. Grigely invites us into his silent world with densities of text and color, all of it haunted by a lingering sense of loss. It’s a portal to a reality many have never contemplated nor can reasonably imagine, but, through Grigely’s cannily charming interventions, all can relate. There’s a sincere accessibility through-line to the show — it makes a point of offering an array of resources to visitors who need them — but there’s a slyness here, too; Grigely and curator Denise Markonish invited the artist and disability arts activist Andy Slater, who is blind, to create the exhibition’s audio guide. The heart of the exhibition is a pair of elliptical galleries built into one of Mass MoCA’s cavernous spaces. The shape itself is a subtle irony, given that an elliptical room allows sounds to travel its walls more efficiently than any other. But these walls are papered floorto-ceiling with handwritten notes and sketches from across decades of Grigely’s artistic career. While they might dampen sound, they amplify his personality. Pick through the thousands of sketches and scribbles and the artist comes vividly to life. They can be hilarious, prosaic, or poignant; some are snippets of written conversation, assumably with friends, curators, and other familiars, while others are notes-to-self. “Do you remember sounds?” reads one of them, in tight cursive — not Grigely’s hand, which, you come to learn, is expressed in jagged all-caps. “EVER TRIED TO SPEAK IN SIGN LANGUAGE IN THE DARK?” reads one; another might be the unofficial slogan of the whole affair: “WHEN YOU WRITE IT DOWN … YOU HAVE TO THINK TWICE.” The insight into Grigely’s world is crystal clear. What exists immaterially in the aural memory of hearing people is, in his world, a mountain of scribbles and scrawls; for him, conversation has uGRIGELY Continued from Page N1 hazy video still of a soccer match is captioned only “[SPEAKING NON-ENGLISH].” Perhaps most telling is the empty, pitch black screen of another, closed-captioned “[Music].” The point seems clear enough; we all experience communication gaps, but isolation so complete is unique to the disabled community. In one powerful work, a video of sea ice drifting on a chilly oceanscape is accompanied by Grigely himself, on a small video monitor, gamely singing the theme to “Gilligan’s Island,” one of the few songs he remembers from childhood. (A promotional photo of the show’s cast hangs nearby, autographed by Bob Denver, who played Gilligan). His elocution is notably rounded, the product of not having heard a word in decades; and the tune, while recognizable, is understandably flat. It’s a poignant moment; Grigely, now bushybearded and middle-aged, reaching back to reconnect with his younger self, who experienced the world in a way he now only scantly recalls. The piece makes clear both his isolation, living in one world with a sharp memory of another, and his lifelong attempts to bridge between them. In his work, Grigely gamely reaches across the chasm between hearing and not, extending a hand across the divide; his work, full of poignant charm, would prompt anyone to grasp it.

In addition to Michael and J.J. (a.k.a. James Jr.), there was middle child, Thelma (Bern Nadette Stanis), who did much of the cooking while trading barbs with her older brother. Keeping the kids in line were their stern but loving parents, Florida (Esther Rolle), and James Sr. (John Amos). The series, which ended in 1979, was beloved by many and is still popular thanks to reruns. “Saturday Night Live” even did an excellent parody skit that played up the darker elements of the show. So it was only a matter of time before somebody would try to do a remake. After plans for a 2013 big-screen version fell through, Netflix rebooted the show this year. The result is an animated atrocity that’s so unfunny it could only have been produced by Seth MacFarlane. I gave up after four episodes that unsuccessfully tried to shock me with jokes ripped off from better shows like “Big Mouth” and Eddie Murphy’s controversial Claymation show about the projects, “The PJ’s.” Netflix can keep that mess to itself. Consider this appreciation of the original show my public protest. This isn’t my firsttime atthe “Good Times” tribute rodeo. Back in 2013, I wrote a short piece about my childhood love of the show — and how I actually preferred its CBS sitcom sibling, “The Jeffersons.” Both were developed by Norman Lear and were spin-offs of “All in the Family,” though “Good Times” has that tie indirectly. Florida Evans originally appeared on the “All in the Family” spinoff “Maude,” making “Good Times” an unprecedented spin-off of a spin-off. Michael Evans, who co-created “Good Times” with Eric Monte, played Lionel Jefferson on both “All in the Family” and several seasons of “The Jeffersons.” As a kid, I never got to see him spar with Archie Bunker, nor did I get to see Florida work for Bea Arthur’s titular liberal feminist. That’s because both of those shows came with the dreaded “parental discretion is advised” warning, which my mother took very seriously. She once yanked the television out of my room so I couldn’t watch a movie because it had that warning. And I’d already seen the uncut R-rated version in the theater! But I digress. “Good Times” gave us one of the mostfamous catchphrases ofthe 1970s, J.J.’s weekly yelling of the word “Dyn-O-Mite!” The show also gave us one of the great mysteries of modern television, a lyric in its unforgettable theme song no one could ever figure out. Songwriters Dave Grusin and Alan and Marilyn Bergman stumped us really u‘‘GOOD TIMES’’ Continued from Page N1 good there. You know how it goes: “Temporary layoffs (Good Times!) Easy credit ripoffs (Good Times!) Scratchin’ and survivin’ (Good Times!) ????????????? (Good Ti-iiimes!)” Some folks believe that misheard line is “hangin’ in a chow line” or “hangin’ in and jivin’.” We dirty-minded little kids had a different idea that’s not fit to print here. More importantly, the Evans family was a historic first on TV — a Black family with a two-parent household. At least it was until the show killed James off at the beginning of season four. Both Rolle and Amos were vocal about the devolution of J.J. into what they considered an ignorant stereotype. Amos wound up fired, and the showrunners decided to kill him off rather than replace him. I was fully invested in these characters, so this devastating plot twist hit me (and every other viewer at the time) like a ton of bricks. Credit goes entirely to Rolle, whose delivery of the line that ended that episode has lost none of its power some 48 years later: “Damn! Damn! Damn!” she cried in despair. Keep in mind that curse words, even a mild one like “damn,” weren’t too common on prime-time TV at the time. J.J.’s shenanigans never bothered me. After all, this is a sitcom. He can even be forgiven for being the prototype for characters like Steve Urkel. If I had a problem with “Good Times,” it would be that the show occasionally skirted the line of sadism in terms of the bad luck it put the Evans family through. Good luck was always snatched from their grasp just as they were reaching for it. Even their hilarious, sassy neighbor, Willona (Ja’Net DuBois, singer and co-writer of “The Jeffersons” theme song) had her share of troubles. The child-abuse subplot that brought Janet Jackson’s Penny to the show as her adopted daughter was harrowing. (Yes, that Janet Jackson.) At least the show ended with a streak of good luck for everyone. And fans like me were left with wonderful memories of a show that featured Bookman (Johnny Brown) a.k.a. “Buffalo Butt,” and Sweet Daddy the hustler. I’ll always remember Thelma’s lumpy oatmeal, and Ned the Wino being the model for Black Jesus in J.J.’s painting. And I won’t soon forgetthe episode where J.J. gets an STI and is talked into getting treatment by, of all people, Jay Leno. Of course, that episode carried the “parental discretion is advised” warning, so I didn’t see it until I was, like, 30 years old. Damn, damn, damn indeed.

N8 B o s t o n Sun d a y Glob e A P RIL 28, 2 0 2 4 “I love breakfast because it’s the least adult of the three meals and the only one that made any sense to me as a kid,” Seinfeld said. “Everything else I was forced to eat was just such an offensive drudgery. Meatloaf and even sandwiches I didn’t like when I was a kid because I ate mostly cereal and candy and Pop-Tarts.” “Probably into my mid-20s, that was all I ate,” he added, noting that he recently had a few bites of his favorite Pop-Tart flavor (brown sugar cinnamon, unfrosted) during a video shoot. “It was fantastic,” he said, adding a bit of that “Seinfeld”-style emphasis. “What I love about riding with Jerry is his simple comedic philosophy,” said Feresten. “Second, his absolute dedication to originality. If someone has said Katz, reached via email, said the feeling is mutual. “Paul is a comedy legend! And a great human!” he wrote. “I’m thrilled everyday to collaborate with him on this show. He’s so gifted in so many mediums. This show feels like a musical convergence of all that talent. It’s an extremely unique live experience, and such a fun time. I’m extremely lucky to help bring this show to life.” That “comedy legend” business is no exaggeration — Tompkins has had a multi-faceted career that has spanned four decades. He still regularly performs his blustery, faux-exasperated brand of stand-up — his take on peanut brittle is a regular crowd request — and you’ve likely heard his voice on one animated show or another. (His recurring role as Mr. Peanutbutter on Netflix’s “Bojack Horseman” earned him a mention in a “Jeopardy!” clue this month.) He frequently appears as a variety of characters on the cult-classic podcast “Comedy Bang! Bang!,” and he hosts his own informally chatty podcast, “Stay F. Homekins,” with his wife, the actor Janie Haddad Tompkins. Tompkins said that this seemingly disparate work is all part of the same skill set. “I think that every creative thing that I engage with informs the other, because it’s all extensions of me and my creativity,” he said. thing. The format itself isn’t dated, just to have different things in one show.” After several years at Largo, Tompkins moved the show to the Lodge Room, a concert venue whose bigger space allowed him to expand from singer-songwriters to a house band with a full horn section. There is no “typical” “Varietopia” show, but past acts have included magicians, book readings, and character monologues. Last year’s St. Patrick’s Day show included Tompkins, in character as Monsignor Damien Fearnley, singing “Jesus’ Day Out,” an Irish-tinged song about how Jesus sometimes gets bored and pops back on to Earth. Given the show’s longevity, it may seem surprising that Tompkins has never toured with the show. He said that this was largely because of its many logistical challenges, and credited musical director Jordan Katz with ironing those out. “Music requires so much more all around, in terms of travel and lodging, tech, that it was very daunting for me,” said Tompkins. “I had [touring] in the back of my mind but I didn’t know how to do it. [Katz] has been the person putting all of the logistics together. That stuff is beyond me. He’s been terrific at putting that stuff together.” Variety is the spice of his comic life Comedy By David Brusie GLOBE CORRESPONDENT Stand-up comedian Paul F. Tompkins wears many hats. In addition to his day job, he hosts a podcast, performs sketch and improv, and does voice-over acting. As a lover of old-fashioned style, he also wears many actual hats — and cravats, three-piece suits, boutonnières, and the occasional cape. This love of classic showbiz trappings makes him a perfect fit for his other gig: variety show host. “Varietopia” is a recurring stage variety show that Tompkins curates, stages, and hosts in Los Angeles. He just embarked on his first-ever “Varietopia” tour, which will stop at City Winery for two s hows o n May 2. (The full lineup is, by design, a secret.) “Varietopia” began in 2002, when Tompkins was a mainstay a t t h e L a r g o nightclub in Los Angeles. Owner Mark Flanagan booked guests whose specialties included spokenword poetry, music, and stand-up comedy (its scene fostered musicians Aimee Mann and Fiona Apple, stand-up Patton Oswalt, and comedy band Tenacious D, among many others). This format inspired Tompkins to bring that same kind of grab-bag energy to a show of his own, which he periodically staged over the ensuing years. “I wanted to host a show, and I didn’t want it to be just a parade of stand-ups, because there’s plenty of that already,” said Tompkins over the phone from LA. “There’s nothing wrong with that, but I wanted to do something where I could do all the different things that I like to do. I like to do stand-up, I like to do sketch, I like to host, I like to participate in music. So that was the impetus. It really reawakened in me the love of variety shows I had when I was a kid, when they used to be a much more common PAUL F. TOMPKINS VARIETOPIA WITH PAUL F.

I like to do stand-up, I like to do sketch, I like to host, I like to participate in music.’ PAUL F. TOMPKINS with frequent collaborators Barry Marder, Spike Feresten, and Andy Robin, also stars in “Unfrosted” as Bob Cabana, a big-wig executive at Kellogg’s who’s tasked with creating a shelf-stable pastry to rival competitor Post Cereal. While Pop-Tarts were, in real life, a result of the breakfast giants duking it out in Battle Creek, Mich., during the ’60s, “Unfrosted” is a mostly made-up tale that focuses on bringing the laughs over giving history lessons. The film grew out of a long-gestating joke about Pop-Tarts that Seinfeld worked years to refine before it was featured in his 2020 Netflix stand-up special “23 Hours to Kill.” Feresten, who hails from Fall River and wrote the famous “Seinfeld” episodes “The Soup Nazi” and “The Muffin Tops,” among others, would often joke with Seinfeld about turning the bit into a movie. They finally got serious about writing the film during the lockdown period of the pandemic. “Well, that joke led us to a real story to tell,” Feresten told the Globe via email. “A story not unlike the space race dramatized in ‘The Right Stuff,’ except sillier.” “There were so many movies that we stole from in the making of this movie,” Seinfeld said, noting films like “The Godfather” and “Apollo 13.” One of the draws was getting the chance to feed his inner child. “You can’t do anything that’s not fun,” Seinfeld said. While show business can be “treacherous,” he added, “the real key to it is, if you’re really having fun with something, you have a chance that other people will, too. . . . That is kind of an endless childhood, and part of, I think, what has enabled me to keep doing comedy.” Still, he joked, “I did miss out on adulthood. I still don’t know what it’s like to be a grown-up.” It’s no surprise that Seinfeld has mined his childhood love of breakfast to make a movie. The most important meal of the day has served as fodder for his comedy, from his sitcom character’s love of sugary cereal to his web series “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee,” featuring the comedian grabbing a cup of joe with his funny friends. uSEINFELD Continued from Page N1 it or done it, or if it’s a cliché, he will push us to do better.” “Unfrosted” also gave Seinfeld the opportunity to work with a number of his favorite comics and actors. Melissa McCarthy plays a mad food scientist who helps Seinfeld’s character create the Pop-Tart, while Jim Gaffigan and Amy Schumer play rival breakfast-company executives. The film features a colorful collection of cereal mascots as well, including Hugh Grant as Tony the Tiger. Other fun cameos include Peter Dinklage, Christian Slater, Fred Armisen, and an incredible nod to Seinfeld’s love of “Mad Men” that we won’t spoil here. Seinfeld also enlisted Canton comic Bill Burr to play an over-the-top version of President John F. Kennedy. He wanted to feature the former commander in chief because he “loved JFK” and “idolized him as a child,” while Burr is a good friend of Seinfeld and one of his favorite comics. “Bill Burr is the greatest guy to come out of Boston,” Seinfeld said. “When I called him to see if he would do it, he was onstage at the Comedy Store, and he took the call and we were chatting in the middle of his set.” “He said, ‘Sure, I’d love to do it, but I have to finish this set and then I’ll call you back when I get off stage,’” the “Unfrosted” director added. “He was the funniest. A lot of the stuff in there is his writing, his ad libs.” Seinfeld, meanwhile, helped pen the lyrics to the film’s catchy song “Sweet Morning Heat,” which he worked on with Mark Ronson, the producer behind the hit “Barbie” movie soundtrack. “Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon and Nantucket native Meghan Trainor also lend their voices to the track. “I really had no idea how you write song lyrics, but I always thought it’s kind of like writing a comedy bit,” Seinfeld said. “It has to have a rhythm to it.” At the end of the day, the “biggest treat” for Seinfeld was getting to work with so many creative and funny costars who helped him make a love letter to ’60s breakfast culture. “I’m not a serious filmmaker,” said Seinfeld. “I just want to have fun.” “Unfrosted” premieres on Netflix May 3.

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e N9 Phinney, is a thinly veiled self-portrait: It follows a Boston-based filmmaker named Mark (Mike Mitchell) whose phobias — of love, death, loneliness, and yes, flying — are disrupting his life and work. The documentary “Secret Mal l Apartment,” directed by Jeremy Workman, tells of a group of artists in Providence who in 2003 decided to move into a secret alcove in their local mall. The scheme began as a lark — a bet between friends on how long they could live in the vacant room before getting caught. But over time, the space grew into a kind of antiestablishment clubhouse, one that allowed the group to give a big middle finger to rampant commercial development and reclaim a sense of ownership over their rapidly urbanizing home city. Other exciting documentaries include the Netflix titles “Daughters,” which follows four girls preparing for a Daddy-Daughter Dance with their incarcerated fathers, and “Power,” a chronicle of the history of American policing directed by “Strong Island” filmmaker Yance Ford. The IFFBoston documentary centerpiece, “The Road to Ruane” (see feature below), tells the local story of Billy Ruane, a legendary rock music promoter in Boston. During the ’80s and ’90s Ruane became known as a champion of indie acts; according to lore, he sometimes paid bands out of pocket if ticket sales were low. On the narrative end, “Good One,” which I highlighted out of Sundance, is a major gem; its portrait of a teenage girl on a camping trip with two grown men is taut, alert, and excellently observed. The film begins as Sam (Lily Collias), her divorced dad, Chris (James Le Gros), and his best friend Matt (Danny McCarthy) are preparing for the outing, and then follows them over a couple days in the forest. In her first feature, writer-director India Donaldson demonstrates a keen eye for how gender roles work among the trio: Throughout, Sam is expected to perform as the men’s assistant, therapist, cook, and overall caretaker — which she does readily, until she can’t take it anymore. Two other Sundance titles worth your while are the Aubrey Plaza-starring “My Old Ass,” which is playing as the IFFBoston narrative centerpiece, and “I Saw the TV Glow,” the hyperstylized second feature from Jane Schoenbrun. Both focus on a suburban coming-of-age story but manage to avoid familiar tropes by incorporating elements of the surreal. Movies about community theater might not seem like everyone’s cup of tea, but I suspect that few will be disappointed by “Ghostlight,” a tender and winning family drama. The film tells the story of overworked parents (Keith Kupferer and Tara Mallen) dealing with their rebellious teenage daughter (Katherine Mallen Kupferer) after she’s suspended from school. The plot kicks into motion once Dad stumbles into a community theater practice for “Romeo and Juliet” and decides to join in. The film, like IFFBoston more broadly, ultimately makes the case for the power of art to bring people together and transform them for the better.

They often provided visiting bands a place to crash, which is how he first met Gill, who was a member at the time of the Connecticutbased ska band Johnny Too Bad and the Strikeouts. After Evans moved to LA in 1999, he began his editing career on a television documentary series called “Intervention.” He worked on “Katy Perry: Part of Me” (2012) and a film about the comedian Tig Notaro (2015). Later, he got Gill a job as an editor on “The Amazing Johnathan Documentary” (2019), a Hulu documentary about a dying magician. The Ruane documentary, more than a decade in the making, was “a real passion project” for Gill, Evans says: “One interview would lead to three more. Eventually, he had over 80 interviews.” Raconteurs include Bostonbred musicians such as Dinosaur Jr.’s J Mascis, Mission of Burma’s Roger Miller, Letters to Cleo’s Kay Hanley, and Ziegler, the first-time actress who plays the 11-year-old Lacy (Julianne Nicholson plays her mother, Janet). When casting for the part, Baker put out a call that specifically asked for introverts, hoping to find a girl who could nail Lacy’s quiet, observant temperament. “Janet Planet,” which will be released by A24 this year, might be the buzziest New England movie playing at IFFBoston, but there are other local stories on the lineup, including “Fear of Flying,” a warts-and-all portrait of a filmmaker on the brink of breakdown, and “Secret Mall Apartment,” a documentary that recently premiered at South by Southwest.

Additional information about the festival is available at www.iffboston.org. Movies By Natalia Winkelman GLOBE CORRESPONDENT T his year, Independent Film Festival Boston turns 21 — old enough to drink and gamble. But for the event, the age represents something steadier: a vital position in Boston culture, fortified by two decades of showcasing artists and building community, all while prioritizing the sensibilities of local audiences. “I think the Boston spirit is one of independence,” said Brian Tamm, the executive director of IFFBoston. “We see the festival and the city as kind of intertwined.” Alongside program director Nancy Campbell, Tamm has worked at IFFBoston in some capacity nearly since its inception. Their time on the staff has allowed them to get to know Bostonian audiences. “We are a group of people who are independently minded, probably somewhat stubborn,” Tamm said. “That, to me, is what makes this a great filmgoing city,” he added. “People want to look beyond the headlines.” This year’s program — which will screen May 1-8 at the Somerville Theatre in Davis Square, the Brattle Thea tr e in Har vard Square, and the Coolidge Corner Theatre in Brookline — offers a sampling of features culled from major independent film festivals around the country. Several had their world premieres at the Sundance Film Festival in January, where they received accolades and sold to major distributors. Their inclusion at IFFBoston ensures that local audiences can catch some of 2024’s best offerings months before they filter into theaters and onto streaming services. But the lineup is also a showcase for smaller movies made by local talent, such as “Fear of Flying,” directed by Mark Phinney. And although prestige is a natural draw for audiences, it’s worth paying attention to the microbudge t movies, like the par tially crowd-funded horror-comedy “Evil Sublet,” precisely because the IFFBoston programmers have chosen to spotlight them without big festival buzz. My favorite movie in the program, “Janet Planet,” premiered at the Telluride Film Festival last fall, but its story and tone scratch a strong Massachusetts itch. The film is the glorious first feature from Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Annie Baker, who was born in Cambridge and grew up in Amherst. Set in 1991, the story follows a taciturn preteen girl and her mother as they slog through the summer months in rural Western Massachusetts.

By James Sullivan GLOBE CORRESPONDENT If you attended a single rock show at any of Boston’s legendary neighborhood bars during the 1980s or the ’90s, chances are you’d recognize Billy Ruane. He was the one-man mosh pit driving the rest of the crowd to the edges of the room, flailing like a rabid woodchuck, beer bottle perpetually held aloft, his tie carving figure eights in the rank air. It was Ruane, a troubled trust-fund kid who fell in love with the local music scene while studying at the Harvard Extension School, who convinced the Sater brothers, Joseph and Nabil, to begin presenting live music at their Middle East Restaurant in Cambridge’s Central Square in the late 1980s. And it was Ruane who planted sloppy wet kisses on musicians while they were onstage, in mid-act. A relentless promoter and archivist of the scene, Ruane was also its biggest pain in the neck. His death from an apparent heart attack at age 52, in 2010, left a bombsize crater in the city’s nightlife. “The Road to Ruane,” a feature-length documentary premiering Saturday, May 4 at the Somerville Theatre, a highlight of this year’s Independent Film Festival Boston, traces the deep impression left by an antic, unforgettable character. Ruane, who suffered from bipolar disorder, was the son of the megawealthy investment banker William J. Ruane. Warren Buffett was his godfather. He grew up collecting stamps and coins and learning to ride horses. He never gave up the ties and sport coats of his upper-class upbringing, but in every other way he rejected his privileged background. As the film makes clear, Ruane couldn’t spend his freeflowing inheritance fast enough. He’d buy up all of a band’s merchandise to give to friends. He’d spend hours on end at a Western Union service, wiring money to less well-off acquaintances. He was, as a Harvard classmate suggests in the film, a real-life combination of Jay Gatsby and the pirate Jack Sparrow. “There was a lot of trauma in Billy’s life, some of which people may not be aware of,” says filmmaker Scott Evans. “It cemented who he was as a person.” Evans completed the documentary over the past couple of years, picking up where Mike Gill left off. They were roommates in Los Angeles for several years, after Gill moved there from Boston around 2015 to pursue film-editing opportunities. Gill, a drummer for several Boston bands beginning in the ’90s, met Ruane while working at the Middle East. Soon he was shooting footage of various gigs at the direction of Ruane, who had arranged for others to videotape the Boston scene going back to the ’80s. “The Road to Ruane”’s archivist, Greg Dalton-Kay, has created a YouTube channel where he has uploaded dozens of digitized tapes of live sets. Evans is from the Baltimore area, ‘The Road to Ruane ’ tells the story of an antic, unforgettable character in Boston’s music scene songwriter Mary Lou Lord, who recounts how she spent the night before the release of Nirvana’s “Nevermind” in Ruane’s apartment, listening to records with Kurt Cobain. The real caretaker of Ruane’s legacy proves to be Pat McGrath, longtime proprietor of Looney Tunes Records, which reopened in Allston in 2017, a few years after its old location on Boylston Street closed. In the last years of Ruane’s life, when his self-medication began to impact his health, McGrath was on the payroll of the Ruane Trust, charged with looking after his friend. “To Billy, I was his personal assistant,” McGrath says. On the phone from his store, McGrath says he first met Ruane in the late 1970s, when he began noticing another guy at all the same shows he was attending. “Being cursed with high self-esteem like I am,” McGrath jokes, “I’m attracted to someone who reminds me of me.” To him, his late friend’s story took on “operatic proportions.” McGrath, says Evans, is “a great soundbite machine. As he says, the film is an examination of the human condition. Billy was so extreme, it’s easy to examine him.” “The Road to Ruane” reveals multiple tragedies beyond its central dismay over Ruane’s demise. In the end, however, the film is a celebration of life — a big, loud, messy, enthusiastic life. A complicated person, Billy Ruane lived to be “in service to other people,” as his sister, Lili Ruane, says in the film. “That heart never stopped giving until it gave out.” James Sullivan can be reached at jamesgsullivan@gmail.com.

BIBLIOPHILES ‘If I like a book, I usually listen to it three times.’ W ith her 2022 Edgar- and Leftyaward winning mystery, “Like a Sister,” Kellye Garrett established a knack for mining the zeitgeist for anxiety and suspense. In her new social thriller, Garrett probes the phenomenon known as “missing white woman syndrome,” in which, as the late PBS news anchor Gwen Ifill noted, “If there is a missing white woman, you’re going to cover that every day” — and deftly updates it for the digital age. “Missing White Woman” actually centers a young Black woman. A stationery store manager from Maryland who once dreamt of practicing law, Breanna Wright (Bree) is thrilled to spend a weekend away with Ty Franklin, her boyfriend of three months. Ensconced in a fourstory luxury row house with “unobstructed views of the Manhattan skyline” after a decade of struggle and singlehood, Bree’s happiness is more about her boyfriend’s warmth and caring than the trappings of luxury. To Bree, Ty is not just “the first decent guy I’d dated in a decade.” He’s the kind of man she could easily fall in love with: sexy, affectionate, and ambitious, with a fast-track, crypto-related finance position at Wall Street powerhouse JP Morgan. Even working too much, “with the bags under his eyes, he was divine.” On the last day of her romantic getaway, a dead body — that of a young, blond, and formerly beautiful white woman — throws a wrench into that idyll. Bree wakes up to find a bloody scene in the foyer of their townhouse, and Ty gone. With that nightmare scenario, Garrett launches two intertwined narratives. One explores what happens to a Black woman caught in the fury of missing white woman syndrome in the time of social media; the second involves the shadow investigation Bree launches when the world focuses their suspicion on her and Ty. "MISSING", Page N11 In a thriller for the digital age, a young woman’s romantic fantasy turns into a social media-driven nightmare MISSING WHITE WOMAN By Kellye Garrett Mulholland, 336 pp., $29 By Leland Cheuk GLOBE CORRESPONDENT “No, we couldn’t stay in the rave forever,” writes Geoffrey Mak in “Mean Boys: A Personal History,” a book of essays that attempts to find meaning in the art critic’s formative years, which span Trump’s presidency, COVID, and its aftermath. The title suggests the book will examine the author’s meanboyness, but ultimately, this straightforward coming-of-age memoir is most concerned with the author’s meanness to himself. The reader is invited into countless raves at Berghain, Berlin’s iconic nightclub; an extensive tour of the author’s drug-fueled racial and sexual insecurities; and a compelling chronicle of his rise as a critic and style expert. But larger questions about identity and the lasting importance of the fashion and art industry that Mak has staked his career upon feel elided. This reader can’t help but wonder what we’re to take away from the author’s experiences now that the raves are over.

FINCK: I just finished Jennifer Egan’s “A Visit From the Goon Squad,” which I reread after reading her novel “The Candy House,” which I adored.

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e Books N11 This two-pronged approach redirects attention and care from the archetypal white woman of the title and onto Bree and Ty’s treatment in the justice system and the court of public opinion. It’s a tasty cocktail, but the ingredients prove hard to balance. With humor and pathos, Garrett’s writing exposes the dynamics of race as media narratives careen out of control. The mystery is intriguing, but slower to unfold, with provocative twists that I wished I had encountered earlier. Bree’s history makes her particularly vulnerable in this crisis. She grew up wanting to be a lawyer “like her dad.” That feeling intensified after his death left 10-year-old Bree with an anxious, grieving mother. When Bree got into trouble her sophomore year in college for possession of marijuana she didn’t own and resisting arrest during a traffic stop, it was a second strike in her mother’s eyes (the first was attending a lesser known, predominantly Black college rather than an Ivy). That brush with the law and custodial sentence for something so many white kids partake in but rarely get arrested for took a toll on Bree’s mental health and her grades. It also brought her relationship with childhood bestie turned roommate, Adore Smith, to an abrupt and painful end. Having lost so much for a crime she didn’t commit and been abandoned when she most needed support, Bree is hard-wired to keep the faith about Ty. Still, the optics aren’t good: a body badly beaten, Bree the sole witness to either a tragic fall or a brutal murder. Her moment by moment narration of discovering the body is one of the book’s most striking passages: “I was so focused on trying to manifest good vibes only, I didn’t notice the shoe until I was midway down... Red sole, so at first I thought it was the work of some designer. But then I realized it was blood.” Gruesomely, “even from a flight up, the blood looked deep enough to swim in. It wasn’t a pool so much as a river trailing from her head.” u"MISSING" Continued from Page N10 Seeing through Bree’s eyes, we’re hit with the incongruence of Bree’s romantic expectations and this harsh reality. In a wealthy white neighborhood populated by a horde of would-be Karens, she’s under tremendous pressure. That peril intensifies with the involvement of social media influencers. The dead woman is almost surely dog walker Janelle Beckett, an active fan of one of social media’s most prominent TikTok accounts, “A Brush with Billie.” As Billie turns Janelle’s disappearance into a cause celebre, toxic influencer and true-crime culture merge. The police find themselves barraged by Billie’s minions, who are determined to find the real truth (or jump to facile conclusions) for themselves. They mistrust and disparage Bree on instinct, and dig into her past with a vengeance. When a seemingly incriminating part of Ty’s history comes to light online, because, as Bree puts it, “some woman who’d rather put on makeup than get a job had posted his Instagram handle,” it’s a perfect commentary on Bree’s very modern, social media-fueled crisis. A best-selling and award-winning author, Garrett’s mastery of character and wry social observation shine bright in the eye of this storm, even if her protagonist is both sympathetic and deeply frustrating. Bree thinks she’s been hardened by tough times and betrayal, but she can be gullible, not just about the body in the foyer but also about the injustice she suffered in college. And though she is determined to save herself and find her boyfriend, Bree is painfully slow on the uptake. Though deliciously twisty, the pacing of the mystery follows her lead. Context and character building take precedence, so it’s not until the final quarter that the sleuthing really flows. Till then, this is a heroine who does not have a clue. At the same time, the scenario feels terrifyingly realistic. Who could say, faced with similar blows, we’d jump into action any quicker? Carole V. Bell is a Jamaican-born writer, critic, and media researcher. Romantic fantasy turns into a modern nightmare A son of an evangelical minister, Mak flees the Los Angeles County suburb of Diamond Bar for New York and then Berlin, because he “didn’t want to miss out on ‘the Paris of our time.’” Away from his family’s homophobia, he freely explores his identity as a gay man. He aspires to be an art critic. “I imagined the art critic lived a life of status, which was real and autonomous here in Berlin,” Mak observes. “…Berlin, specifically the East, carried the residue of a Soviet mentality, from the times when, in theory, class did not exist, but status still did.” Mak is also drawn to the world of fashion due to its status. The author describes himself as a “club kid” whose “highest destiny was to serve as decoration to somebody who had attained a level of status that was evidently not in the cards for us.” He tried to stand out among those “dressed up for the club with an impatience to be noticed: lavish outfits cut from flowing satin; chains, directly sourced from Bauhaus; or vintage looks bought head to toe from the Humana thrift s tore in Friedrichshain.” Readers not into fashion on this level of granularity will wonder, as I did: What does this status mean in the end? Is the pursuit of status a positive or negative? Where does the author stand on these questions? As many expats experience, the shine of being a perpetual foreigner, no matter your status, can fade over time; all parties must end. Mak’s search for love and healthy expressions of intimacy is derailed by a sexual assault in New York, causing him to abuse drugs and pornography and become suicidal. “In the all-bets-off economy of cruising, wokeness doesn’ t save you,” Mak writes. “Asian men rank at the bottom of the sexual hierarchy. The virtual nonexistence of Asian men in gay porn tracks with the desert of desire I’ve detected in other men, white or otherwise, who have seen me more like a green leather couch…” Mak’s racial and sexual insecurities are further explored in the book’s closing essay, “Mean Boys.” The author writes about Elliot Rodger, who went on a violent rampage on the campus of the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2014, killing six before shooting himself, targeting female students u"MEAN BOYS" Continued from Page N10 (because they wouldn’t sleep with him) and Chinese men (Rodger’s mother was Malaysian Chinese). Mak gives Rodger’s disturbing manifesto a close reading and finds himself empathizing with the killer, imagining himself in Rodger’s body, “walking down my own high school hallways that were so narrow it was impossible to dodge eye contact with anyone I wanted to avoid.” In “My Father, the Minister,” the book’s most poignant essay, Mak’s father visits the author in New York and appears ready to repudiate his homophobic beliefs. But when Mak asks his father to tell his congregation about his gay son, his father refuses. It’s a heartbreaking moment to see a father fail his son so deeply, despite his good intentions. In this essay, Mak seems to get closest to the root of his struggles as a young person: “I was never able to believe that I deserved love, that I was no less capable of receiving it, assuming I’d be able to recognize love if I ever saw it.… I was unable to love myself, much less accept it from others.” I couldn’t help but wish for more of these epiphanic moments in “Mean Boys.” Too much time is spent introducing and following party people who sound more important to Mak the status-seeker than Mak the author of a book about his own life. Chillingly, his essay about Elliot Rodger, who posted photos of himself in $500 Neiman Marcus sweaters, brings up the importance of status again. “Rodger turned to fashion because he wanted to buy something that in fact cannot be bought: status,” Mak writes. But is the author critiquing his own pursuit? If so, what is the author now pursuing in its place? The book ends with a lovely section about his friend Ellis — not just a party friend, a real one. Ellis and Mak struggle with depression, and share that they’ve had suicidal thoughts. They turn to each other for solace. Mak’s relationship with Ellis gives the reader a much-needed glimpse into the author after the party’s over, and that boy seems far from mean.

Isak Dinesen is one of those people. I love “Seven Gothic Tales,” at least parts of it. I love how she turns life into a story. BOOKS: Who else is in that camp?

Schiff’s just this sparkly, non-linear, interesting thinker, and I love the breadth of the projects she takes on. BOOKS: Is there anything about reading that makes you anxious? FINCK: I can’t bear sitting still. It’s such a paradox because you read to be taken out of the world, and you need your world to expand to know that there is some meaning instead of this hectic mishmash, but in order to do that you have to sit still. If I have a perfect spot to sit I could, but I’ve yet to find that. BOOKS: Did audiobooks solve your problem? FINCK: They totally did. I don’t think it’s cheating but it is a little bit.

By the third listen, I’m catching all the parts that I missed. BOOKS: What do you pick up for comfort reading? FINCK: I read a lot of self-help books. I read a ton of books about having a baby. Some of them, like Emily Oster’s “Expecting Better,” I liked and some I hated. Harvey Karp’s “The Happiest Baby Book” is terrible and Heidi Murkoff ’s “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” is so condescending and full of propaganda. But I found them delightful to read because I hated them. Now my husband and I are getting into time management. We are both reading “Getting Things Done” by David Allen. BOOKS: Has it helped?

On reading when you can’t sit still Tan’s love of the natural world is palpable in her warm, compassionate descriptions of the life-or-death struggles playing out beyond her windows. There are the travails of fledgling titmice being forced to acquire their own food: “One parent led the fledglings to a cage and secured a mealworm . . . but took off without giving the mealworm to any of them. The abandoned fledglings cried as they sat on different arms of the feeder station. Tough love.” Her anguished consideration of the yellow jackets caught in a trap she set to prevent them from killing the mealworms meant for the birds is unapologetically earnest: “I wondered if those outside the trap recognized the ones who were drowning,” she writes. “I don’t feel indifferent to any creature struggling to survive.” But Tan’s curiosity in these journals extends beyond animal behavior to her own, and in doing so, it cuts a wider swath of inquiry. She wonders, at one point, why she has never attempted to recognize individual birds, or to name them, noting that even though she feeds them on a regular basis, “I appreciate that they are wild. They do not belong to me.” She has qualms about endowing birds with human emotions and traits, such as trust or joy, or cunning: “I am aware that I have committed the naturalist’s sin of stereotyping the towhee as jolly and Scrub Jay as conniving. Science would require me to be objective.” (“Thank God I am not a scientist,” she adds.) Anthropomorphism, in Tan’s view, has the benefit of allowing her to at least begin to look at things from a bird’s perspective, and from that equivalence springs more diverting questions than scientific objectivity might provide. Do fledglings play, as human children do? (She makes a convincing case that they do.) Do they learn by example and observation, as humans can? (Also an apparent yes.) Besides joy and delight, Tan also chronicles loss and upheaval, as any account of nature inevitably — and particularly in our current age — must. Some losses loom large, such as an epidemic that kills Pine Siskins in droves. Others are smaller, as when a Hermit Thrush dies after flying into Tan’s window. “Some might say one collision death a year is not many,” Tan writes. “To me, the death of even one bird is one too many.” The intensity of Tan’s love for her visitors makes “The Backyard Bird Chronicles” an unexpectedly moving account regardless of your level of interest in bird-watching. Because while the book is about golden-crowned sparrows and Cooper’s hawks and hummingbirds, it’s also a book about survival, adaptation, and chance. COVID-19 floats among these pages (the journals span 2017 to 2022), as does the death of a beloved friend; the author herself has suffered from latestage Lyme disease, leaving her epileptic and unable to drive. Seventy percent of songbirds don’t live to adulthood, Tan notes. “The reasons are many, from predation by hawks . . . cats, toxins, and starvation to disease and disability.” But she frames those odds with grim optimism: “For birds, each day is a chance to survive.” Francie Lin is a freelance writer in Northampton. THE BACKYARD BIRD CHRONICLES By Amy Tan Knopf, 320 pp., $35 By Francie Lin GLOBE CORRESPONDENT ‘These pages are a record of my obsession with birds,” writes Amy Tan in the preface to “The Backyard Bird Chronicles,” and “obsession” is no overstatement. Her new book, culled from “nine personal journals filled with . . . naive observations of birds in my backyard,” is the work of a dedicated hobbyist, the kind whose days are colored and suffused by every minute detail of their subject. Any reader not already smitten with birds might look at this book and back away. But they would be missing out, because Tan, best known for “The Joy Luck Club” — the iconic 1998 novel of intergenerational Chinese and Chinese-American mothers and daughters — is a tremendously charming emissary from the world of birding. Not because she is an expert on migration patterns or beak shapes, but precisely because she isn’t. “When I started the ‘Chronicles,’ I could recognize only three birds in my yard,” she notes. “What I did not lack was intense curiosity.” That curiosity, along with a sharp eye and a novelist’s penchant for narrative, has been channeled into an absorbing, quirky book of days focused on the avian ecosystem Tan has established in her Sausalito backyard. Notes on domestic concerns like live mealworms versus dead and the fraught passage of fledglings to adulthood are interspersed with Tan’s own sketches, from finely shaded, detailed Audubon-like bird portraits to rough sketches of juncos and goldencrowned sparrows in action. None of this would necessarily make “Backyard Bird Chronicles” stand out from another nature journal, but as a neophyte, Tan also writes about learning about birds, and her observations about the process are at least as sharp as her notes on plumage. About her growing birder skills, she writes, “I am secretly proud when I make the correct ID of a bird in front of others . . . . I am still in a newbie stage, often wrong, often surprised, often puzzled. I know too little to know what’s ordinary.” Gently defiant, she claims that ignorance as a source of pride and delight. “I have heard experienced birders call the Lesser Goldfinch a ‘trash bird’ because it is so common and numerous . . . . The rhetoric is often the same as the racist ones I hear about Chinese people. I am still new to birding, and so every bird is a good bird to see.” Amy Tan logs her obsession with birds KNOPF/ENMEI TAN Illustrations from Amy Tan’s “The Backyard Bird Chronicles.”

A cultural history of female pleasure from MIT Press “What does a cultural history of expressive genital female juices look like?” asks Stephanie Haerdle in her new book, “Juice: A History of Female Ejaculation,” out this week from MIT Press, and translated from the German by Elisabeth Lauffer. In this case, it looks lively, informative, enthusiastic, as Haerdle drifts back to ancient erotic texts of India and China, moves into the Middle Ages and how their doctors and poets responded, looks at the more repressive, suppressive, denying 19th century, and how the wetness looks today. She weaves in anatomy, biology, medicine, reminding us that these fields have been “shaped by male perspectives, wishes, and needs.” She’s sensitive not to link anatomy with gender, and explores why people came to view vulval ejaculation with such skepticism. She tracks the fear and skepticism of both vulval ejaculation specifically and female sexual pleasure more broadly. The tone throughout is playful and matter-of-fact. “All genders can (learn to) ejaculate, Méritt contends. Then it’s come one, come all.” There are dildo dealers and squirting workshops, and Haerdle argues for “a new view of our bodies. We need different words.” It’s a warmly welcoming approach to the body, to pleasure, making a case for recognizing what these effusions are, why they happen, knowing it’s a natural — and common — part of female sexuality. This book on orgasmic juices is a deep pleasure. NEW ENGLAND LITERARY NEWS | NINA MACLAUGHLIN LOCAL BESTSELLERS BARBARA DIET Stephanie Haerdle’s new book is a cultural history of female ejaculation.

I wasn’t preparing to write a book.” It took a nudge from Marcus’s now-agent for him to embark on the project that became “Glad to the Brink of Fear: A Portrait of Ralph Waldo Emerson.” Rather than duplicate the “capacious and complete” biographies already published on Emerson, Marcus says he wanted to explore in writing the question “How does a person like me connect with a person like Emerson?” The result is an intimate and often moving book, lively with ideas. “Emerson said every human being should have an original relation to the universe,” Marcus says, “and I wanted to have an original relationship with Emerson.” The research was daunting, as Marcus wanted to understand Emerson in the context of his intellectual influences, from Unitarianism to German Idealism to abolitionism. He had to leave a lot out. “I could write another entire book out of the stuff I didn’t put into this book!” Marcus says, but adds, “I think I ended up with the book I wanted to write, which you can’t always say.” Even as he moves on to other projects, Marcus believes Emerson will always be with him. “There is an intimacy that springs up between a biographer and a biographical subject. I came to find Emerson an extremely lovable figure in the course of writing this book.” James Marcus will speak at 6 p.m. Thursday at the Boston Athenaeum.

Teen Spoken Word Festival. Over three days at Grub Street’s headquarters in the Seaport, the emphasis will be on “unity, presence, and authenticity,” encouraging teen poets to raise their voices with intention. “This is a festival of sharing space and sharing stories.” The festival opens on Friday evening, and Saturday features a poetry slam where the emphasis is less on competition and more on the joy of spoken word. Workshops take place that afternoon, on “Collage as a Door to the Poetic Surreal” with Leticia Priebe Rocha (inset); “Loving and Longing for the Future” with Nnenna Loveth; “The Art of Portraiture: Writing into the Self” with Jarvis Suba; “From Page to Stage: Poetry as Performance” with Katya Zinn; and “Mumbo Jumbo or Gumbo: A Medley of Melodic Words (Learning to Rhyme)” with Cakeswagg.

I felt like a kid on Christmas morning, a kid with noticeable flecks of gray hair in his bedhead, but a kid just the same. I sat up, wrapped myself in the bed’s comforter like a burrito, and yanked back the drapes. I was suddenly looking at a sunny snowscape in northern New Brunswick. This was a thrill because when I boarded the Via Rail train at Montreal Central Station the day before, there was no snow, and the sky was the color of dishwater. Having experienced little to no winter in Boston, seeing this Bing Crosby landscape was a refreshing change of pace. While I slowly woke up, the train rumbled along the tracks, and I watched the broad blue expanse of Chaleur Bay slowly pass by.

By Christopher Elliott GLOBE CORRESPONDENT Q. I need help getting a refund from Expedia. I booked two round-trip Air Transat tickets from Toronto to Paris through Expedia back in 2020. I had to cancel the flights, and, under the refund rules during the pandemic, Expedia said I could get my money back. Expedia said it would process the refund in a matter of weeks. I waited a few months, but the refund never showed up on my credit card. I contacted Expedia in early 2022, and they told me to contact Air Transat for my refund. I did, and an Air Transat representative said the airline had already sent my refund to Expedia. I’ve contacted both Expedia and Air Transat on numerous occasions since then, and I’ve also asked my credit card company for help. It says that there’s no record of a refund from Expedia or Air Transat. I would love to get my refund. Can you help me? KEITH DAWE, Toronto A. Expedia should have refunded your money four years ago. I believe this is a new record for the longest airline refund case. (Congratulations, Expedia!) Air Transat is a relatively small charter airline, so that might explain the initial delay. But at some point, Expedia should have taken ownership of this problem and helped you get a refund. Instead, it looks as if you bounced between Expedia, Air Transat, and your credit card company for years. Literally, years. You must be exhausted. What happened? It looks as if Air Transat refunded part of your purchase with a check, which appears to only cover taxes and fees. This left an outstanding balance of about $1,002. Air Transat claims it sent the money to Expedia, but Expedia said it never received the money. Here’s the thing: When you buy an airline ticket through an online travel agency, it is responsible for the refund. It doesn’t matter if the airline refunds it or not. So, if Expedia says that you’re entitled to a refund, and it promises to process a refund in a few weeks, it’s on Expedia. You were way too patient with your airline and online agency. You should have received the promised refund promptly, and if you didn’t, you should have filed a credit card dispute to recover your funds. I list the names, numbers, and email addresses of the Expedia executives on my consumer advocacy site, Elliott.org. A brief but firm email to one of them might have motivated Expedia to find your missing money. I contacted Expedia on your behalf. In response, the company apologized and admitted that there was “an error with the refund.” “The refund has been processed,” a representative said. Expedia also added $200 worth of points to your loyalty account as an apology for the delay. Christopher Elliott is the founder of Elliott Advocacy (elliottadvocacy.org), a nonprofit organization that helps consumers solve their problems. Email him at chris@elliott.org or get help by contacting him at elliottadvocacy.org/ help. Expedia said it would refund my tickets four years ago. Help! ADOBE S inger, songwriter, and actress Katharine McPhee, who in 2006 was runner-up on the fifth season of “American Idol,” has toured the world extensively in the past nearly two decades. So when asked about where she would like to travel most, she replied — emphatically — “straight to my bed and home and not leave for a week.” But for now, she is on a national tour with her husband, composer and music producer/industry executive David Foster, that makes stops at the Providence Performing Arts Center on May 12, The Cabot in Beverly on May 14, and The Music Hall in Portsmouth, N.H., on May 15. “I haven’t really toured in this part of the country too much, so I am looking forward to it,” she said in a recent phone call. “I love being in different parts of the country and seeing how different the audiences are — and often being surprised.” McPhee, 40, said that while there are “challenging” aspects to being on tour with one’s spouse, she and Foster, 74, with whom she shares a 3-year-old son, Rennie, “get on great.” Having said that, she added that coming off of the “An Intimate Evening with David Foster & Katharine McPhee” tour, they both enjoy their “down time … enjoying basic things like cooking a meal and watching TV together.” McPhee, who attended the Boston Conservatory (now Boston Conservatory at Berklee) for three semesters and who in 2018 made her Broadway debut starring as Jenna in the musical “Waitress,” said that the current show features a variety of musical genres, a fair amount of storytelling, and even some occasional bickering. “It’s a pretty spontaneous evening,” she said. “And it’s a really good time.” We caught up with the Los Angeles native, who still calls LA home, to talk about all things travel. If you could travel anywhere right now, where would you go? I travel so much these days that I would travel straight to my bed and home and not leave for a week. Do you prefer booking trips through a travel agent or on your own? I prefer booking through a travel agent. It’s very overwhelming looking at flights. Thoughts on an “unplugged” vacation? It’s a good idea in theory, I guess. But I’ve never tried it. I like to know what’s happening in the world and with my loved ones. What has been your worst vacation experience? A couple years ago on Christmas Day, traveling to Hawaii with my husband, 10-month-old, my mom, and [a] friend, the flight was delayed — but they had already put everyone on the bus to go to a different terminal and then ended up not having an actual gate so they put us on this bus and went clear across to the other side to go to a terminal where we had to stand on the tarmac for more than an hour. It was very cold and there were no bathrooms, no food … not how we wanted to spend Christmas. But we were able to find some humor in it and laugh a bit. Oh, and then once we did get on a flight and finally got Rennie to sleep, David got up to get something out of the overhead compartment, and when he closed it, he woke up our son. He was awake for the rest of the flight. What is your favorite childhood travel memory? Going skiing with my mom, dad, and sister. Skiing takes a lot of effort — especially with kids.

APR I L 28, 2024 B o s t o n S u n d a y G l o b e Travel N15 By Diane Bair and Pamela Wright GLOBE CORRESPONDENTS ‘I ’m changing the menu for tomorrow,” Joseph Kalynuik, executive chef of Windstar Star Legend, said as we walked through the Mercato delle Vettovaglie in Livorno, Italy. “I’m looking for local charcuterie, cheeses, truffles, lavender, limoncello. Look at all this!” We were on the “Market Tour with the Chef,” a popular excursion offered on Windstar cruises. The market is beautiful, located in an historic 19th-century building, designed by the Italian architect Angiolo Badaloni, and modeled after Les Halles, the central market in Paris. But this was more than a look-see through the historic 1894 market. Chef Kalynuik was on a buying mission, looking for the best local ingredients to include in the ship’s restaurant dishes. “Va bene!,” a cheese vendor said to our small group, offering us slivers of pecorino sardo al tartufo. It was aged, firm and salty, laced with the earthy taste of truffles. Kalynuik bought a kilo of the cheese, along with links of local sausages. We trailed Kalynuik through the market, tasting and buying along the way: disks of creamy camembert, bags of fresh Meyer lemons, a variety of salumi, marinated peppers, olives and anchovies, truffle chips, and honey. The next day the fruits of our labor were in full view. Lunch at Veranda, one of the restaurants aboard Star Legend, featured a bountiful charcuterie table, filled with the market finds. Also, on the menu were sausages with peppers and onions, truffle risotto, Bolognese fettuccine flavored with local meats and spices, and a shrimp and crab dish in a limoncello-flavored beurre blanc. Later that evening at Windstar’s Amphora restaurant, we enjoyed a warm camembert appetizer, topped with a lemon-flavored fig jam, drizzled with honey. “Our guests are keen on trying new and adventurous dishes, predominantly local, authentic foods,” Kalynuik said. “It’s about experiencing the local culture through food.” We’d joined a recent seven-day Barcelona to Rome Mediterranean cruise aboard Windstar’s Star Legend to check out its updated culinary offerings. Windstar is the official cruise line of the James Beard Foundation, and the official cruise line for the National Health Association. On our cruise, we not only went to market with Kalynuik, but also joined his cooking class to learn how to make chicken and mushroom vol-au-vent (“Remember to coddle the cream!” Kalynuik advised) and Italian seafood chowder. We had lunch at the Star Grill by Steven Raichlen, cookbook author, TV host, and founder of Barbecue University, where we dined on bourbon-brined turkey breast, tender smoked pork shoulder, and burnt ends. Lunch and dinner menus in the main restaurants included dishes from James Beard-winning chefs, like Annie Pettry’s glazed wild shrimp and Spanish chorizo dish, Paul Berglund’s roasted rack of lamb with preserved green and red tomatoes, Duskie Estes’s prosciutto and watermelon salad, Amy Brandwein’s grilled filet of branzino, and Irene Li’s coconut dashi clam chowder. A James Beard award-winning chef was not aboard our cruise, but Windstar has already hosted 48 James Beard award-winning chefs on board, and will host chefs Omar Anani, Tanya Holland, and Loryn Nalic on upcoming 2024 culinary cruises. They’ll conduct on-board cooking demonstrations, lead market tours, host a special multicourse dinner, and provide multiple recipes to be featured on Windstar’s menus on all its cruises. “Not only will you get to eat their food — you’ll get to know them,” says Windstar president Christopher Prelog. “You may even learn a few tips and tricks for being a better cook yourself, and you’ll definitely have a richer and deeper travel experience because of it.” If we were on a gluten-free diet or committed to only healthy eating (sadly, we’re not!), there were plenty of options. Windstar, in partnership with the National Health Association, offers whole foods, plant-based, SOS (salt, oil, and sugar free) and gluten-free appetizers, soups, entrees, and desserts in all its main dining venues. Windstar showcases what’s happening throughout the cruise industry: an across-theboard effort to upgrade culinary offerings. “Cruise clients, particularly more seasoned and discerning sailors, are seeking a more personalized experience and elevated culinary excellence, delivered in a more comfortable ‘country club’ atmosphere,” says Elizabeth Cincotta, founder and luxury travel designer of Rising Tide Travel, which specializes in luxury cruises. Kristin Karst, cofounder and executive vice president of AmaWaterways, agrees, “Delving into regional food and wine specialties has become an important part of how travelers experience a destination,” she says. “A heightened culinary focus enables our guests to develop a deeper and more nuanced appreciation for a country, its history, culture, and people.” Major cruise lines have responded in a big way to the demands of a more discerning and food-wise clientele. Today, it’s not uncommon for cruise lines to offer celebrity chef tie-ins, cooking classes, local market excursions, specialty restaurants, and a variety of healthy options. For example, Silversea has a new culinary program called S.A.L.T. (sea and land tours), that includes food excursions, cooking classes, chef’s tables, and an evolving restaurant that adapts to each port. Oceania, with celebrity chef Jacques Pepin as its executive culinary director, has a state-of-the-art Culinary Center, offering classes from international master chefs, immersive culinary tours (e.g., an Argentine dinner at a local’s residence, traditional Irish bread making in Belfast, or a Paella workshop in Alicante), and a host of specialty restaurants, including Toscana’s serving authentic Italian dishes, Polo Grill’s steakhouse fare, Red Ginger’s Asian flavors, French country cuisine at Jacques, and the Dom Perignon Experience at La Reserve. Regent Seven Seas has introduced its new Epicurean Perfection programming, including specialty restaurants, special tastings, deck-top regional barbecues, on-shore culinary, wine, and spirits tours, hands-on cooking classes in its state-of-the-art Culinary Arts Kitchen, and specially curated Spotlight Voyages designed around specific culinary interests. AmaWaterways, the first river cruise line member of the La Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, offers at least one wine or culinaryfocused excursion on all its itineraries, while others, like Essence of Burgundy & Provence and Taste of Bordeaux, include six tours designed to showcase the culinary experiences in these regions. In 2024, the cruise line will offer more than 70 winefocused cruises. Our winter Mediterranean cruise began in Barcelona. But it wasn’t until the final day onboard, docked in Rome, that we were able to snag a seat at Cuadro 44 by Anthony Sasso, touted as one of the world’s youngest Michelin-starred chefs. It’s an intimate, 40-person-or-so restaurant with an open kitchen and warm, inviting vibe. We enjoyed glasses of house-made sangria and plates of Jamón Ibérico, Cantabrian anchovies and marinated olives, poached cod, and romesco pork belly. It was a far cry from the grand ballroom dinners and buffets of old. Diane Bair and Pamela Wright can be reached at bairwright@gmail.com. beaches and boardwalk. The hotel also offers a free beach shuttle. There’s a rooftop pool, bar, and lounging area, free Wi-Fi, and loaner bikes and scooters. Coffee and tea are free, along with Kimpton’s popular complimentary wine social hour (best happy hour in Miami!). We found early winter, midweek rates for under $200 a night. Trolleys & tours Getting around Miami, like most big cities, can be a pain; the city is spread out and traffic can be a nightmare. Let someone else do the driving. The Miami trolleys are free and include South Beach, Middle Beach, and North Beach; the Collins Express trolley, connects Nor th and South Beach and rolls through the Art Deco District. The free downtown Miami trolleys connect major sights, destinations, and neighborhoods throughout the downtown area. If you’re on a tight budget, skip the guided walking and bus tours; it’s easy to see most of Miami on your own, including the popular Art Deco District, with the largest concentration of Art Deco architecture in the country. Stop at the Art Deco Welcome Center and pick up the free Miami Beach Architectural Guide, which lists more than 50 points of interest. The free GPSmyCity app is a great resource, and includes four, self-guided walking tours in Miami: Miami Downtown with seven sights, Art Deco District with 15 sights, Little Havana Food with 10 sights, and South Beach with eight sights. Good ’hoods Little Havana: It’s not what it used to be. That’s what we heard from the locals, but still we found it a fun place to visit. It’s colorful and historic, filled with rum bars, coffee “ventanitas” (little windows), fruit markets, and cigar shops. Walk Calle Ocho; visit Domino Park and stop by the longstanding Ball & Chain restaurant to hear live music and see traditional dancing. The beaches in Miami are free. Walk the Miami Beach boardwalk, a scenic pathway that stretches 7 miles from South Beach (South Pointe Park) to the Surfside border, with many beach access points and parks along the way. Don’t miss a visit to Wynwood, a vibrant neighborhood filled with colorful street art, funky shops, craft breweries, and cheap eats. Wynwood Walls, an indoor-outdoor street art museum, is worth the price of admission ($12).

Stay in style The are plenty of splurgy places to stay in Miami, and low budget motels and hostels, but we like the contemporary Kimpton Palomar South Beach boutique hotel for its value. We’re fans of Kimpton properties in general, and this one did not disappoint. The rooms are comfy, with small sitting areas, and sleek marble baths.

When I left Montreal, it was gray. Coastal New Brunswick was snowy and bright, and as the train descended south, the snow disappeared, and the sky darkened. By the time we neared the Bay of Fundy, it was snowing, and then it was raining, and then the sun started peaking out. The biggest frustration was that the train was running two hours behind schedule. I had made dinner reservations in Halifax for Saturday night but missed them because of the delay. I had one night in the city before getting back on the train the next day and lost precious time. Another frustration I faced was that the train’s observation car was no longer used. One of the best parts of taking a scenic train is, well, watching the scenery. I could still see the countryside from my room, the lounge, or the restaurant, but the glass-domed observation car on the Ocean route was removed two years ago because of a track change in Halifax. Having that car would have made the experience even more special. I got back on the train Sunday afternoon, settled into my new room, which was identical to the previous one, and headed back to the cafe car for lunch. All of this investigative reporting was really adding inches to my waistline. I tried the gnocchi pomodoro and decided to treat myself to a glass of local wine. Unlike Amtrak, alcohol is not free in Via Rail’s sleeper class. Again, I was impressed with the menu options, service, and food. I watched the small towns blur past from the lounge car, one of the few places on the train where the internet was available. Even so, it was usually empty. The pace of train travel, devoid of the internet, is a rare treat. Eventually, a pair of sisters came into the lounge car and asked me if I wanted to play cards with them. I honestly couldn’t remember the last time I played cards, so I put down my camera and began a game of rummy. I can imagine that this was what travel was like before planes or even cards. Without screens, I was actually looking up, talking to people, and p laying a game that wasn’ t on my phone. That night, before I went to bed, I opened my laptop and started scrolling through the photos I’d taken throughout the trip. I frantically scrolled up and down, looking for a big “wow” photo. I needed a picture with pizazz. Then I stopped scrolling and looked at the pictures together. This trip wasn’t about flashy sites or Instagrammable moments. It was a long weekend of fluffy waffles, snow banks, blue rivers, and expansive brown fields. Mostly, however, it was about taking a moment to slow down and breathe.

More importantly, during these times of division and conflict, it’s souldrawbacks, thousands of pieces of correspondence a year are sent from this middle-of-nowhere outpost, making their way all around the world, delivered by hand from one stranger to another. The unique pay-it-forward postal system was founded by passing whalers around the late 18th century (some records put its founding at 1793, a date now painted on the barrel in fading blue paint), who would often be at sea for months, sometimes years, at a time. Looking for a way to communicate with family and loved ones, they devised a simple volunteer network. Passersby would leave letters in the barrelfor recipients back home and take letters intended for addressees at future ports of call. These days, visitors to Floreana are tourists, not whalers (all fishing is now banned or severely restricted within the protected reserve encompassing the Galapagos). I stopped by the unusual post office on a weeklong cruise with my 10-year-old son, Zephyr, through uFLOREANA Continued from Page N13 the southern and central islands of the archipelago. Preceding our arrival at Floreana, the crew on our ship laid out postcards in the lounge. I grabbed a pair, jotting a quick missive to a friend from college, while Zephyr wrote to my mom. The letters were carefully tucked into a waterproof bag to protect them from the spray when we were buzzed ashore in a Zodiac raft. Our group landed on the beach at Post Office Bay, and we made our way to a small clearing. The postal barrel sits next to what looks like a remnant of a post-apocalyptic Stonehenge: two rectangular concrete slabs for legs, a third laying across them forming a primitive counter. On top sits the battered stone carving of a head with a rictus grin and a fist-sized chunk of the island’s volcanic rock. After giving a brief history of Post Office Bay, our guide, Fernando Sanchez, invited our group to bring our postcards up to be mailed. Each was ceremoniously “stamped” using the small rock. From the depths of the barrel, Sanchez pulled bundles of correspondence carefully sealed in Ziploc bags. One-byone, he read off the addresses. If someone lived nearby, they volunteered to take it. The truest version of the system involves hand-delivering the mail and telling the recipient the story of how it traveled from the Galapagos to their doorstep. There was a card for a recipient in North Bethesda, Md., just 15 minutes away from my home. Though the sun was shining, and we were all laughing at this delightfully odd little post office, a sense of gravity settled on me when I took charge of the featherweight slip of cardboard. It was now my duty to get it where it needed to go. Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night could get in my way. What it must have been like to be a whaler, stopping at this island centuries ago, sending letters to their dearest ones thousands of miles away, hoping the kindness, honor, and determination of complete strangers would getitto them, perhaps years later. In this age of instantaneous global warming to know that this globe-spanning operation is powered purely by good deeds. Just a few days after we returned from our vacation, I completed my duty. The woman who answered the door looked at me suspiciously until I explained I was neither selling something nor looking for a charitable contribution. Handing her the postcard, I felt a psychic weight lifting off me, as a quiet joy thrummed inside, the feeling of a good deed done. I told her the story of its journey, shared moments from our trip, and heard a little about her friends who sent her the card. A little more than a week later, my mother called, astonished she received my son’s card. It arrived quicker than airmail. Another good deed done by another stranger. If only more people approached their lives following the way of Post Office Bay, the world would be a better and brighter place. Nevin Martell can be reached at nevinmartell@gmail.com.

Above: A view of the Amherst Point Bird Sanctuary in Amherst Point, Nova Scotia, from the Via Rail train. Right: The interior of a two-person cabin on Via Rail Canada’s Ocean line train set up for sleeping. which were served in the dining car on actual plates with actual flatware. I reasoned that I was getting a room, all meals, and the constant entertainment of the ever-changing landscape for $400 a night. That seemed like a decent deal. I decided to book my return to Montreal on the train as well. That would give me a solid 44 hours on board. The train departed Montreal at 7 p.m. on Friday and was scheduled to arrive in Halifax at 5:51 p.m on Saturday. I was curious to see how Via Rail, Canada’s national rail company, compared with Amtrak, particularly its sleeper cars. As I cased out my room, I watched the Farine Five Roses sign and the rest of the Montreal skyline disappear behind us. My cabin was designed for two people, but I wanted a room with an en suite bath and shower. The cabin was about 30 square feet (not including the bathroom). It had a sofa that folded down to a bed, with a bunk bed that folded down above it. There was a narrow closet, and in the bathroom, there were towels, a bottle of shampoo, and a bar of soap. It wasn’t the Ritz, but it was clean and cozy. These cars were built for the canceled European Nightstar train service in the late 1990s. The trains would have used the Chunnel to take passengers from London to cities in mainland Europe. When the project failed to materialize, Via Rail bought the cars and shipped them to Canada in 2000. Despite being in service for nearly 25 years, the train was in good shape. After inspecting and unpacking, it was dinner time. We were well on our way to Quebec City by the time I sat down and perused the menu. I opted for leek-crusted chicken with wild rice pilaf and roasted butternut squash. This was better than any meal I had ever consumed on an Amtrak train. I was seated with a retired sports editor (pure coincidence) from New York. He had taken most of the Amtrak overnight trains in the United States and now wanted to sample Canada’s offerings. He agreed with me that the food was better than Amtrak, and the train cars were generally in better condition, but he pointed out something I hadn’t noticed: The staff was much friendlier than the staff on Amtrak, and it made a huge difference. One of my chief complaints, particularly on Amtrak’s Silver Meteor, is that the staff often seemed surly. By the time I finished dinner and returned to my room, the attendant had made up the bed. I decided I would try sleeping in the bunk, but I quickly soured on the idea when I realized the only way in and out was a narrow ladder. The bunk seemed a bit high for my liking. I folded it back and slept on the lower bed. The bed is 6 feet long and about 2½ feet wide, so it may not be ideal for taller passengers. The mattress was comfortable, and the comforter was wonderfully thick. Each cabin has individual temperature controls, so even though the temperature was in the single digits outside, I was tucked away comfortably for the night. I’m a light sleeper, but I dozed off quickly. The next morning, it was time to test the shower. To my shock and delight, the water was hot enough, and the pressure wasn’t bad. I went to the dining car and tried the breakfast poutine. I concluded that poutine is a perfect all-day meal. I wrote “open 24-hour poutine restaurant ” in my notebook and watched as the train gradually made its way inland. My breakfast companion was a retired teacher from Montreal who was going to visit her grandchildren in Halifax. “Don’t you dare write anything bad about this train,” she sternly warned me as only a teacher could. “It’s my favorite uTRAIN Continued from Page N13 A peaceful passage through Maritime Canada PHOTOS BY CHRISTOPHER MUTHER/GLOBE STAFF VIA RAIL
