  • Proverbial #68: Marvin
    Jane Austen wrote, "The memory is sometimes so retentive, so serviceable, so obedient - at others, so bewildered and so weak - and at others again, so tyrannic, so beyond control! - We are to be sure a miracle every way - but our powers of recollecting and of forgetting, do seem peculiarly past finding out." In this episode, Joshua Gibbs tells a single story from a difficult summer when he believed his life was ending.
