But as daily life grows more clamorous and abrasive, as violence enters the home regularly by way of TV or flesh-and-blood carriers, serious fiction shows signs of moving in the opposite direction. Novels and story collections tumble...

...government concentrator in Winthrop House, knows the lyrics to the “Heathcliff” theme song by heart. He’s also a big fan of the Knicks and Mets.
