...family and friends, giving and sharing, and a steady supply of good old holiday cheer. The season has its immutable rituals-looking for that perfect tree, basting that hormone-injected dinner bird, setting up lighted lawn decorations (in Springfield Fla. this week, one man put up a display of two reindeer getting it on, much to his neighbors' horror-but that's an exception), and frantic last-minute dashes to the mall for almost-forgotten gifts.

Two weeks ago, the usual audience of corduroyed intellectuals and well-dressed Cambridge ladies buzzed in anticipation as John Ashbery '49-Pulitzer Prize winner, post-modern poster boy, darling of Harold Bloom and Helen Vendler-took to the stage in a reading sponsored by the Grolier Poetry Book Shop and the Harvard University Art Museums...
