		<description><![CDATA[L’esprit du lieu has always had a powerful influence over my sensibility, a fact which once made a visit to a concentration camp in Germany unbearable and which last week transformed a walk down Boylston—open for the first time since the bombings at the Boston Marathon—into a painful pilgrimage. The memorial in Copley Square was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Has anyone made it to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston to see the new exhibition of Japanese armor? The MFA has been marketing the exhibit simply as &#8220;Samurai!&#8221; which I find very effective. This month, in conjunction with the museum&#8217;s show and with spring&#8217;s cherry blossoms, we&#8217;re promoting Japan as our Destination of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over half our staff at Booksmith are writers. So many of us were delighted to hear that AWP (the annual Association of Writers &#38; Writing Programs conference) would be held in Boston this year. Convenient, yes, to have over 10,000 writers, readers, agents, lit mags, editors, and publishers converge on one&#8217;s hometown. But I also [...]]]></description>

Maybe that&#8217;s why I always get a bad taste in my mouth when flipping through a magazine. Or a headache from the perfume samples. I can never seem to focus on anything between the flimsy covers, registering only advertisements that make me [...]]]></description>
