UP WHAT'S ON THE COVER In "The Lifespan of a Fact," John D'Agata bought this chair for his mom. He needed it to fit in a cer- tain space with room for a walker. The catalogue measurements say the chair is too large for the space, but John says his mom died in that chair. His mom's last words were in the chair before she blacked out. She was revived in the ambulance and put on life support, dying later. So the argument is "When and where did she die?" If you only studied verifiable facts, the chair is too large so it wouldn't fit and her physical time of death was at the hospital, so John's version of his mother's death couldn't possibly be true, explains actor Michael Weir (right). Also pictured are Andria Lickfelt and Tanner Pittman. (COURTESY PHOTO/CHAD WIGINGTON FOR APT) What's Up! is a publication of the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
