If you live in Providence, it may seem as though we’re always finding a reason to mourn. For what’s happening across the country, here in the state, and internally as we all grapple with a pandemic that is six months in with no signs of letting up. On Friday, we found another reason to mourn, […]

If you were with me on my birthday a year ago, you’d know that I spent an hour of it at Greenline Apothecary in Providence. Of course, you wouldn’t know this, because I was there alone. It was my first time there, and I wanted the experience of sitting in a vintage setting, drinking a […]
“I just can’t see myself leaving like this.” She was supposed to have left weeks ago. Months, actually. June 8 was her last scheduled day in Providence. “We’re at June 8. Okay. June 8. It’s here. And I can’t go. I’m like–What? What is happening? Why can’t I go? I love it here. I have […]
If you passed by a house near Charles Street at around eleven o’clock at night on Saturday, you would have seen a light on. “We hadn’t seen each other in 10 or 15 years. It’s been that long.” The two of them were sitting at a small table next to the window eating pizza from […]
