Slightly, Mr. Wade?
ReplyDeleteI might take a look at Bowling Alone.
Jean,
ReplyDeleteAlso try Life with a Star.
Michael
That sounds fascinating.
ReplyDeleteMy mother came to this country in 1929 from Czech. Used to say "was born in Czech when it was still Austria-Hungary." She was Byzantine Catholic.
Jean,
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I've ever met a Byzantine Catholic!
By the way: Another good book by Jiri Weil is "Mendelssohn is on the Roof."
Michael
ha...we get around, although not really announcing it.
ReplyDeleteI shouldn't claim myself in this category any more. Walked away from it and all religions a long time ago.
Jean,
ReplyDeleteI think that Byzantine Catholic sounds fascinating.
