Not to snottily try to make others feel left out, but one very fun aspect of reading FPW's books and stories is that I live in NYC and have spent a fair amount of time in the places he describes in NJ, so I often recognize (and always appreciate the specificity of) the locales, subway routes, highway routes, that he goes into such detail about.

(One of my friends lives in Brick and yes, I've been tempted to hang out in front of FPW's practice like a crazy person to try to glimpse him! But I won't. That'd be crazy and not a single one of the voices I hear has ever implied I'm crazy, so it's just not behavior I'd ingulge in. Never!)

I had never wanted to visit New York until I started reading th RJ books. Wilson shows a side of New York that interests this country boy, though I'd probably be more at home in the Pine Barrens.
