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.”
