Indeterminacy 168
Tucker Madawick is seventeen years old.
He is Lois
Long’s son by her first husband.
It was dinnertime.
He came home
from his job in the Good Samaritan
Hospital in Suffern and said
to his mother, “Well,
dear, I won’t be
seeing you for a couple of days.”
Lois Long said,
“What’s up?” Tucker said,
“Tomorrow night after
work, I’m driving to
Albany with Danny Sherwood for a
cup of coffee, and
I’ll be back for work the following
day.” Lois Long said,
“For heaven’s sake,
you can have a
cup of coffee here at home.”
Tucker Madawick replied,
“Don’t be a square.
Read Kerouac.”
