A story about Mrs. Schuping
Mrs. S is homage to another of the gods, Mr. Padgett Powell: no better writer to shame you out of all aspirations for your own writing. What a great reading he gave of Mrs. S at Beaucoup Books back in New Orleans god knows how many years ago. I guess it was the night we dined with him at G&E. PP is the full metal jacket, the major motion picture, the tore down a la rimbaud. Cat can play.
