I once met Carolyn Chute and she was about the most unglamorous literary figure ever. She looked and acted like one of the rustic characters out of her books. She walked into a record store on Martha's Vineyard where I worked during the first snowfall of the year wearing one of those lumberjack hats with ear flaps and a funky old tweed overcoat that was about 3 sizes too big for her.

Damn, Gavin - I hope you write a memoir that will involve all the interesting cult figures you've met. I gobbled up each of Chute's novels about Egypt, Maine as soon as I heard of them - definitely some of my favorites.
