Princeton in Zoland in June

A good day in Princeton means getting strawberries picked at Terhune and in the car just as the thunder falls, then down Carter Road to the Cherry Grove CSA to pick up tatsoi, kale, garlic scapes, radishes, various other green leafy things, then as the rain subsides, out into the Grove fields to pick snap peas. Home. Wash the strawberries, where awaits the final peg in Zoland 2, Eliot Weinberger's finished translations of Bei Dao. We're about six weeks ahead of the schedule of Zoland 1, which will hopefully translate into a slightly more relaxed summer, and starting to consider work for annual 3.

In other news, Zoland editor Erica Mena will be departing Cambridge, MA in September for Cambridge, UK. Many thanks to Erica for all her work on book 2. And Reviews Editor Chloe Garcia Roberts has just finished year 1 in the Univ. of Oregon writing program. One more year before Chloe refinds her Allston, MA home.
