I really enjoyed this book. I must be homesick and am pining my NYC. There was an episode in "Sex and the City" where Carrie declared her love for the City and not for Mr. Big. There are so many things I simply couldn't stand in NYC but I also loved it with all my musto. It's somewhat like my relationship with Alex. I love him and yet I couldn't stand his arrogance..
The book reminds me of "This American Life". The podcast which I used to love with the charismatic narrator Ira Glass. How I remember we used to listen to NPR together in Alex's car on Saturday mornings! His favorite show was "Car Talk" which made up of two guys joking about fixing up old cars. He was so right that I was bound to marry an American.. He knew way back then that we weren't meant for each other.
I wish I am young again and can just pack up and go and start a new job somewhere else. Now I am grounded and the only place to go is simply to crawl back to my little room with my books. My books are my sanity!
The book is amazing and the :interviews" were sensational!
