   I can’t wait! The opening reminds me of a factoid or maybe internet rumor that TP had been seen working as a crossing guard at his kids’ school uptown. I like the image: out of chaos, temporary and uncertain order, for a little while.

   Maybe I’ll add this to my fall syllabus!

   I’m getting more intrigued by the postmodern literary fascination with 9/11. Would be really interesting to read this novel in conjunction witih Don Delilo’s Falling Man.

   I haven’t read that book of DeLillo’s – thanks for the suggestion.
