bolus

Nelson and other researchers fear their projects could be left behind if the U.S. government doesn’t ante up a similar bolus of funding.

“The bolus of boats in and out of the locks is a delight, as is listening to the sea lions.”

The writer’s literary assistant in the last decade of his life, Julia Bolus — also director of the Arthur Miller Trust and a Writing Studio board member — remembers the studio well.

“For almost half a century, it was his central space and his one private space,” said Bolus, who is working on a project to publish Miller’s journals.

“There are some places in the country that don’t ever do the bolus,” Irwin said.
