My Thanksgiving gathering is large. My grandmother, at 96, still hosts us in her retirement home, Loomis, in Western MA. There’s my family — 6 with partners, my uncle and his family of 4, my aunt and her family of 4, and my mom’s brother’s family also joins us. Five out of 8 came this year—that’s 20! The evening always goes by in a flash as I try to say hello to everyone and briefly catch up.

Books There’s a parallel universe beneath the ocean’s surface – a beautiful, mysterious underworld. Yet we’ve barely explored it by: Susan Casey Here is a basic fact: 70% of the earth’s surface is covered by ocean. Every school kid knows this, and we’ve all seen photos of our blue orb floating in the black void of space. Clearly the ocean is immense, yet it’s hard for people to grasp the scope of its immensity. I like to frame its dimensions differently.

I know I'm not alone when I say the ocean is endlessly fascinating. With so many undiscovered species living right on our planet, it's a wonder why we are pumping so much money into space exploration, when the ocean is right here, home to millions of secrets. Susan Casey, the author of The Underworld, Journeys to the Depths of the Ocean is a water-loving journalist who explores this topic and many more as she takes us tens of thousands of feet below sea level in her latest book.

As proud Emory University alumnae, women who shared engaging years together as undergraduates in the early to mid-1980s, we are deeply concerned with President Gregory Fenves’ decision to call on law enforcement to respond to campus protests on April 25. Allowing Georgia State Patrol and Atlanta Police Department officers to march onto the quad, carrying long guns and using tasers, batons and militarized equipment to threaten and arrest students and faculty members was beyond disturbing.

Humans have always been explorers. For better or worse, something in our collective makeup seems to push us to discover new things, understand the enigmatic, or reach past the limits of what we imagine is possible. Some people dream about what the cosmos could contain; scientists launch probes into space, and astronauts travel beyond Earth’s atmosphere.

We asked some artists and tastemakers we respect to tell us what they’re excited about, right now.
