In Flora and Ulysses, The Illuminated Adventures, there is a lamp named Mary Ann.
On my desk, there is a lamp.
The lamp is a gift from a friend who read Flora and Ulysses and thought that I needed my own Mary Ann.
Every morning when I turn this lamp on, I think of the friend and I think of Mary Ann and I think of stories: how they connect us, how they pull us closer together, into a circle of light.
