conversations.value: The End of Vandalism
  On the second day of her vacation Louise found a pair of hip boots in the closet of her cabin, and on the third day she put them on and walked up the stream. The cold water pressed against the rubber of the hip boots, and the rocky area near the bridge gave way to smooth sand where the stream widened. Clouds moved fast across the sun; the light and the shade swept across her path in alternating bands. A muskrat dived into the water, and a stranded orange traffic cone had washed down from somewhere. She waded awkwardly to the bank and stood there crying for a half hour. Her tears fell into the stream. She wiped her nose with the back of her hand, and washed her hands in the water.
  When she got back, Carol and Mary were waiting to take her fishing. Carol suspected that the bandfish were still in the lake, but grouped together as if preparing for a counterattack from the other fish they had driven out. So the three women went across the lake in a Boston Whaler and dropped anchor not far from a shady spot under a weeping willow on the far bank. Looking back at the camp, they could see the tiny figure of Kenneth carrying something across the grass.
  They cast for a long time with no response. There was a light breeze, and swallows dipped over the water.
  It was not long before Louise was running Carol's route on her own. There were seventeen papers every day except Sunday, when there were forty-eight. Carrying a pair of snips in her hip pocket, she picked up the newspapers in the parking lot of a natural-gas substation next to a bean field in the middle of nowhere. She liked the sound when the yellow nylon band that had held the bundle together broke. She would often be there waiting when the guy who brought the papers to the substation arrived. His name was Monroe, and he was a bald man who stood in the back of his truck in a white canvas apron. Sometimes he would ask after Carol. He never seemed to quite understand why Louise was doing the route. That was all right with Louise. "Carol is taking a little vacation," she would say, smiling up at Monroe, waiting for her papers like someone about to take Communion. Then Monroe would toss the papers out of the truck and they would land with a slap on the pavement.
  All the customers lived in the country and had mailboxes, so after picking up the papers and breaking the band, Louise never had to get out of the car. She drove Carol's old beige Nova, which had a bench seat and an automatic transmission on the column. Carol had demonstrated how to drive and deliver newspapers at the same time. You sat in the center of the seat, left hand on the steering wheel, left foot working the pedals, right hand flipping open the mailboxes and putting the papers in. Louise liked driving this way. She had a much clearer sense of where the car was in relation to the ditch.

  Tiny walked away from the burning house. It seemed that something in his mind was also burning. When he got home, Joan was lying on her side in the bed with her face turned from the light. She was crying.

conversations.value: Louise said she sometimes wondered if she or Dan didn't have powers of mind over matter, because so much of their silverware was bent.
  Hans said he had dreamed recently that he was standing in the parking lot at the Burger King in Morrisville and all of a sudden he just took off flying.
  After supper Hans insisted that they all take turns lying on the davenport with eyes closed and listening to his compact-disc player through earphones. He said this was the only way you could fully appreciate the quality of the sound. When it was Dan's turn, he lay down and Hans fitted the earphones into his ears.
  Dan and Louise said good night to Mary and Hans and drove home. They watched part of a movie on television about a band of mountain climbers who because of an avalanche were forced to choose between taking a daring route to the top of the mountain or just forgetting it and returning to base camp.
  Louise lay on the bed, working her shoes off with her toes. "Gee, I wonder what they'll do," she said.

The music was that of a single flute whose notes broke and reverberated in open space.
