I bought a season ticket to SAL this year because I always feel smarter when I go. Richard Powers blew me away. I've never read anything by him before (one of the pleasures of SAL is discovery), but I will definitely check him out now. Regarding the audience cooing, I've found that SAL people tend to be very interactive, not content to sit with hands folded in quiet laps. Kind of weird, but also kind of goofily charming.</p>
