I can say with authority that my favorite place on earth is my living room couch, on a cold, gray New England day, with blanket and dog in my lap, a cup of coffee on the side table.
I have been a little put off by the length of the Connie Converse book but I guess I need to get past that and dig in - thanks for the push. You might want to take a look at Vashti Buyan's memoir, WAYWARD - amazing story, very moving, at times devastating.
Great piece and good reminder for Prof. Zanes work on Nebraska. But wow, not finishing any Joyce. Even The Dubliners, which includes the greatest short story ever, namely The Dead??

Thanks for the nudge on the VB book. I do love her music.
