The city in this book may be unnamed, new to Seattle, just learning my way in this hitherto unknown place where taking a wrong turn may set you back ten minutes or more from reaching your destination, I thought I recognized the Emerald City. Nicholas Dee became my estranged guide, taking me back across the ocean to the landscape of my childhood, the northern provinces of the Netherlands. Mesmerized by Stadler's story telling I was willing to follow him even if it was back in time both in his novel and my own memory of places visited IRL.

Note that this book is now available in a new totally revised edition from Grove Press with an introduction by Michael Cunningham!
