LIFE, on a
Scale of You .

“AFTERPARTIES” Anthony Veasna So (August 3)
I didn’t know much about Anthony
Veasna So before he died in December. I
knew his work for the magazine n+1, but
in the months since he passed there’s been
an incredible outpouring of love and grief
from the writers and editors that knew
him, and I was inspired to look back into
what I’d already read. Th ere was only one
conclusion: I want to read “Aft erparties,”
So’s fi rst and only short story collection,
and I look forward to spending time with
the type of writer that is in short supply.

“MORE THAN I LOVE MY LIFE”
David Grossman, translated by
Jessica Cohen (August 24)

David Grossman is one of Israel’s worthiest
exports. His novels and essays are consis-
tently thoughtful, generous and worth
reading for the language, even when
translated. For that, thank Cohen, who
has translated many of Grossman’s works
into English, alongside books from other
big-name Israeli writers. If you don’t believe
me, check out this newest novel of his. ●

L iving in the Philadelphia area,
we’re lucky to have other big cities,
like New York and Washington,
D.C., an easy car, bus or train ride
away when we want even more history
and culture than what our own has.

But several medium-sized cities
that are all within a day’s drive from
Philly have plenty to off er as well,
including outdoor activities, unique
museums and summer festivals. Aft er
we’ve been stuck around home for so
long, it’s worth exploring some new
places this summer.

The very best in compassionate
care for your loved one and
peace of mind for you!
