Where glamour and glitter, famous and pedestrian, meet! Chaucer would've loved it. Bring all to the table with yr stories high and low, regal and vulgar, in the name of the future Shakespeare, or was that Marlowe?

The desert, barren, devoid of life, but home to some great stories. "No Place for a Puritan: The Literature of California's Deserts" is a collection of literature in many different formats. From excepts from novels to poetry, to short fiction and more, Ruth Nolan compiles quite the read for any who doubt the power of the desert, invoked for its mysteriousness, its hopelessness, its remoteness, and so much more. "No Place for a Puritan" is an excellent read for those who doubt the literary inspiration that is the deserts of California.
--thanks--!!
