The morning after the Boston Marathon bombings‚ for example‚ the news on television kept bringing up images for me of the science fiction show “Fringe”. Popular movies and television offer‚ to me‚ images and immediate visceral emotional connections. This is our age. So when my father died‚ I did not rattle off a poem.
