mav scb June 2, 2023 After MAV posted this photo, she texted me that “Today’s diptych reminds me so much of 3191 circa 2007.” I agree. In a world that feels so topsy-turvy and scary right now, I take great comfort in how little some things have changed. The square aqua enamel pan in MAV’s photo is something I picked up secondhand and sent her 11-12 years ago. You will see it pop up in A Year of Mornings (2007) as well: Or perhaps it is just that the color aqua reminds us of that blue table which appeared many times—including June of that year (a diptych that became an iconic part of the cover as well). Here’s to the comfort of the familiar. —SCB Save Share TWITTER FACEBOOK TUMBLR PINTEREST EMAIL
