| Grendel is a legit monster. He’s an old-school monster, a genuine classic. In John Gardner’s 1971 novel, we revisit the story of Beowulf from Grendel’s lyrical, angsty perspective. In doing so, we contemplate what it means to be a villain to the huma ...more | |

“It’s easy to look at the contours of a forest and feel a bone deep love for nature. It’s less easy to remember that the contours of your own body represent the exact same nature. The pathways of your mind. Your dreams, dark and strange as sprouts curling beneath a flat rock. Your regret, bitter as the citrus rot of old cut grass. It’s the same as the nature you make time to love. That you practice loving. The forest. The meadow. The sweeping arm of a galaxy. You are as natural as any postcard landscape and deserve the same love.”

“You won't see most of this planet.
Under each rock.
Beneath the water.
Secrets of air and soil.
Can you feel the joy behind this limitation?
That there is always a new thing to discover,
a new way to grow,
is one of the sweetest parts of living,
and it's free and inexhaustable.”
