What We Read On Our Summer Vacation
Carol Fulton I never go wrong when I choose a King’s English employee’s pick. This time it was Let the Great World Spin, by Colum McCann, not only the best fiction I’ve read this summer, but probably the best in years. In New York City in the early 70’s […]

On The Road: The Brandon Cook Family Vacation

$12,000 Sculpture Stolen, and other mixed media
A painting isn’t hard to walk off with: a century ago, a low-rung employee and Italian patriot famously walked out of the Louvre with the Mona Lisa beneath his coat. Walking away with a sculpture is another matter, but that’s what happened this weekend at the Park City […]
