My wife and I sold our house New York and moved to Australia for a year; then we came back and spent almost three years bumming around the country in an old ’61 VW van. We put the kids in school wherever we happened to be, but mainly we reveled in being rootless. Orson Bean Read Quote
I think I started writing about identity, and I used to believe that identity is the story. But now I’m not so much subscribed to that. I mean, with ‘Mr. Fox,’ it has a feminist agenda as well.
