The complex array of walls that emerged from my GPS readings made no sense to me until I found an old map of my town’s property boundaries at the local historical society. Suddenly I saw that some of the stone walls on my map lay along property lines from 1790. They marked boundaries.
The purpose of Japanese garden design is to encourage peaceful contemplation. Stone lanterns, rain chains, stone basins, waterfalls, koi ponds and bamboo wood spouts are popular additions. Create a welcoming entrance to your Japanese garden using an arbor and potted bonsai trees. Place stepping stones through a low ground cover; include a large rock as a focal point. Enclose your garden with bamboo fencing and panels.
After more than two years of intense reporting and endless talking-head speculation about possible collusion between Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and Russian agents in 2016, special counsel Robert S. Mueller III put a huge spike in all of it on Sunday. Attorney General William P. Barr relayed Mueller’s key findings in a four-page summary of the 22-month investigation: The evidence was insufficient to conclude that Trump or his associates conspired with Russians to interfere in the campaign.

I’ve heard Murnane called an outsider artist, but I don’t think that’s quite right. Plenty of writers emerge as if out of nowhere (after steeping themselves in canonical authors), then proceed to become more and more their eccentric selves. It might be said, however, that Murnane qualifies as an outsider literary theorist, taking a concept or two from Booth and elaborating an increasingly complex theory of fiction over several books. The narrator of Border Districts has moved (in an echo of The Plains) to a remote region far from the capital, but the ‘image-events’ derive from his youth five decades before, ‘the period of my life when I read book after book of fiction in the belief that I would learn thereby matters of much importance not to be learned from any other kind of book’. He recalls losing his Catholic faith while reading a Hardy novel and the ordeal of discarding ‘a host of mental images that were no longer of use to me. I had previously considered these images the nearest available likenesses to personages by definition invisible to me. I could never have prayed if I had not been able to bring these images to mind.’ Murnane replaced the Holy Trinity with a new quasi-mystical complex he’d extracted from his reading of Booth: a tripartite Murnane, the writer (Father), the narrator (Son), and the implied author (Holy Ghost) holding the first two apart in the reader’s mind. The drift away from the church was common to Murnane’s generation, children educated by monks who then did not fill their ranks and put on their black soutanes and white celluloid bibs. The monks and their bibs are one of the striking images from the book’s opening pages, along with a priest who urinates into holy water in an emergency and a woman who must type up the complaint of a victim of sexual abuse, then loses her faith during a funeral ceremony, walks out of the church and never goes back. Relating his disenchantment with ‘texts intended to explain the mind’, he concludes that his own mind ‘must have been a paradise by comparison with the drab sites where others located their selves or their personalities or whatever they called their mental territories’. Border Districts and the three fictions that precede it are letters from this austere yet infinitely fertile paradise.
