The poets, fiction writers, and essayists (plus one graphic novelist) who contributed to Welcome to the Neighborhood don't necessarily offer roadmaps to harmonious neighboring. Some of their narrators don't even want to be neighbors. Maybe they grieve, or rage. Maybe they briefly find resolution or community. But they do approach the question of what it means to be neighbors, and how we should do it, with open minds and nuance. The many diverse contributors give this collection a depth beyond easy answers. Their attentions to the theme of neighborliness as an ongoing evolution offer hope to readers: possible pathways for rediscovering community, even just by way of a shared wish for it. The result is an enormously rich resource for the classroom and for anyone interested in reflecting on what it means to be American today, and how place and community play a part"--$cProvided by publisher 606 $aNeighborliness$vLiterary collections 606 $aCommunity life$vLiterary collections 606 $aAmerican literature$y21st century 615 0$aNeighborliness 615 0$aCommunity life 615 0$aAmerican literature 676 $a810.80355 702 $aGreen$b Sarah Elizabeth$f1980- 702 $aBaker$b David 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793918703321 996 $aWelcome to the neighborhood$93724675 997 $aUNINA
