NEVER SWAM NO SEA
For lodging in a renovated barn, a local historian and an experimental filmmaker supervise an intellectually disabled man, who disappears before an oncoming storm.
As Sunday broke, two bodies remained under the silo, as still as statuary, one beside a galvanized trough, the other toppled a few feet farther, facedown in the bluegrass. Nearby, two charred fenceposts were crossed in a ring of ashes from which a slow line of smoke crawled toward tall signboards a half mile out--mainsails and topgallants placarding gas and food and lodging--beneath which the endless semis charged, one upon one upon another.
