Abstract

I grew up without a fireplace because my neurotic (but fabulous) parents were afraid of fire. So I've always been obsessed with them. In the house we built on Shelter Island, I put a bright orange vintage Preway in the bedroom. I had to search far and wide, and finally found the right one on Craigslist. The Preway is no longer in production, but you can still get free-standing fireplaces from Malm, a company out in Santa Rosa, Calif., that has been making them with great proportions and clean lines since the 1960s. (The one above is available from Design Within Reach.) When I am making a piece of pottery, I know that it's finished -- and that it's good -- if it looks like it's supposed to be that way, like it's been uncovered rather than created. To me, that's a Malm fireplace. And I like that it's democratic, not precious. At its height of popularity, you were as likely to see one in a mobile home as you were in a groovy modernist manse. Those who dismiss these beauties as a bit of '70s nostalgia need to look again. I'm never happier than when I lie in bed and stare at my Preway, a glowing beacon of orange optimism in the corner of the room. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

The prosecutor, David Cohen, who is the state's attorney in Stamford, said in a statement that the fire, which killed Grace and Sarah Badger, 7-year-old twins; Lily Badger, 9; and their grandparents Lomer and Pauline Johnson, was most likely caused by the disposal of fireplace ash in a paper bag on the first floor of the house, which was undergoing extensive renovations. The girls' mother, Madonna Badger, and her friend Michael Borcina, a contractor renovating the house, escaped. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
