From the Roads of America and Beyond

Wow, Mr. Sullivan. Wowowow.
He'd reeled me in with his caves essays in the Paris Review some issues ago, but now navigating through this collection is such a thrill.
I have to pack another book for my trip back home tomorrow because I know I will devour this on just the plane ride alone.



I should let you friends know in advance, before I see you and you wonder what's happened to my brain, that I'm really into time travel right now. I've been sifting through essays, watched Primer, Timecrimes and got these guys below on my shelf in addition to some Robert Heinlein, HG Wells, Connie Willism, Charles Yu and Julian May.

About Me

My Photo
I'm an LA transplant now living in Manhattan. I used to take too many camera phone photos despite never having purchased an additional memory card. That was the main form of photo evidence for my "haciendo" and "viendo" until Kristen, an LA based friend I share the having of a knife tattoo behind my ear with, gave me her old Fujifilm camera, which has since DIED. Kristen is now removing her knife tattoo from behind her ear, while mine is still in tact, for better or for worse. The camera died on my first day in Lisbon. The last image it captured was a collection of traditional blue & white ceramic wares displayed in a storefront window. Whatever I was trying to photograph afterwards wasn't worth it. I write and produce film projects, have a dangerous predilection for vintage Robinson Golluber scarves and this blog serves as a window to everything else I do when I'm not satisfying those first two passions. I'm trying to blog more and tweet less @annabelleqv. What about you?
