Product Description
This eclectic compilation of texts serves as a study of contemporary heroism. American life is unwittingly cosmopolitan. Yet quilts, pots, and dreams fail those very individuals who make the national experience both vibrant and sustaining. Lost in this milieu is the sort who makes life worth living. Galapagos, from many vantage points, pursues this literary figure, however essential he may be who risks slipping through the fingers of a generation of readers.
