“Everything in California is new and the people are full of hope” — Don on my home.

The Wrap is running the excerpt from the book today : California Cool

“We never learn the full names or identities of the Fellini-esque aristocrats with whom Don escapes. Names like Rockefeller, Astor, Rothschild, Dykeman — or Whitman — mean nothing in the desert. The whole scene is drenched in a democracy of the sun. Nothing has come before and few think of tomorrow.”

Bask with me.
