Boston nights while John and I took turns trying to sleep. By. the time the sun showed up and Katie closed her maddeningly bright. Harvard. First. of all, John and I both grew up there. I'm not talking about childhood. I. mean later on, when all our adult thoughts and expectations were being. As for childhood, we both spent that in the same small. Utah, a state that doesn't register as part of the known universe. Ivy League. Harvard trained me to believe that this is like admitting. It would have bought. I'd been able to claim that I'd been reared by. We had known each other in high school, but only. Harvardized. We had a lot in common: the dirty secret. We worked like demons, taking heavy loads of the most. As a result. we did well academically and ended up going to Harvard over and. We both applied to combined master's and Ph. D.

But for some reason, in the fall of 1. I couldn't quite. It wasn't just the jet lag, the fatigue, the change of climate. It was the first time since our return from Tokyo that Katie actually. John and I were both trying, unsuccessfully. We stared fitfully at the ceiling, the walls, the. Harvard Square, thinking about the dangers. And then, somewhere toward morning. I told myself. it was a bad idea. I told myself I'd better get some rest while Katie was. I told these things to John, too. And then, of. course, we went right ahead with it. The puppeteers are so skillful. After a few minutes, you'd swear the. That night in our apartment, I kept expecting. Bunraku masters standing behind John and.

It was like swimming against a riptide. Then you look at the shore and realize you. I tried to explain it to John, but I didn't really know. I was talking about.
