He'd take Powell to performing dates, get him together with musicians like Parker who still revered him, and generally make sure he got through...

Instead she spent two years in a "parallel universe," a sorority house of sorts, but with barred windows, a ban on sharp objects and constant monitoring. "We ate with plastic," writes Kaysen of McLean. "It was a perpetual picnic, our hospital." After leaving in 1969, Kaysen continued to resist college, becoming a copy editor...
