To my friends—Elizabeth Abbott, Isaac Butler, Ginny Green, Katie Hensel, Helene McCallum, Emily Meisler, Neil Pearson, Alexis Platt, Jordan Poast, Jenn Schaal, Ginny Sievers, Andrea Uptmor, Mandy Warren, Hannah Wydeven, Matt Zinsli—for loving me even when I disappear for months at a time, and even clapping like I’m some American hero when I come back around, dazed and blinking. You are the flowers in the garden of my life, or whatever that quote is.
To my students, current and former, for helping me see the world anew, and bringing me joy.
To my family, without whom I am not.
And last, but certainly not least, to Ben, my boon, the real one. You came later but you made all the difference.
