I grew up in the rural Midwest and have always been put off by suburbs. Admittedly, this book is clearly and economically written. Admittedly, it is thoroughly researched concerning the land and water on which Lakewood stands. Yet,the life at which the book hints seems so restricted, so circumscribed, and so stereotyped that I have a difficult time understanding the appeal of this book to so many readers. Is it that someone has at last accurately described their poverty of experience? ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Part memoir, part history, this collection of essays is a portrait of the author's coming-of-age. It is concerned with the way a place shapes people's lives. In the 1950s, as the American suburbs were hurriedly built, planners and social critics denounced the right-angle grid and small spaces; but the effect on human lives in suburban streets was not foreseen.
