Waldie, D.J.

Holy land : a suburban memoir / D.J. Waldie - New York : St. Martin's Griffin , 1996 - 180 p. : illus. ; 21 cm.

Part memoir, part history, this collection of essays is a portrait of the author's coming-of-age. It is concerned with the way a place shapes people's lives. In the 1950s, as the American suburbs were hurriedly built, planners and social critics denounced the right-angle grid and small spaces; but the effect on human lives in suburban streets was not foreseen.
