Darkly humorous and entertaining as usual, although now with a deep undertow of wistfulness as the author contemplates the passing of time and one's ever-increasing age. His sister Tiffany committed suicide several years ago, after what had been a turbulent and difficult life. His father, going on into his nineties, lives on in poverty-like conditions (despite being well-off), as Fox News watching and conservative as ever, yet also finally mellowing out to become almost lovable.
The most heartbreaking story, though, was the one about that lovely little fox who became first a regular visitor to his cottage, then his particular wildlife companion. After several years and a final intimate walk together at night, the little fox was never seen again, probably killed in battle somewhere or ran over by a monstrous uncaring car. The author was left calling hopefully for the it every time at dusk, hope being a thing that lives far longer than facts and reality seem to warrant. What a world.
