520 1 $a"Where We Are Now: Notes from Los Angeles is the second book by D.J. Waldie, one of the most gifted writers on the American scene. As Patt Morrison notes in her foreword, "The suburb is America's lifeline and its punchline, and Waldie is its bard." Few observers of the American scene can present the facts of the day, as Waldie does, with the texture and emotion of a symphony. A stunning progression from his much-celebrated book Holy Land: A Suburban Memoir, Where We Are Now is a compilation of Waldie's most intriguing recent works. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
