Sample Book Insights:

#1 We were moving from Boise, Idaho, to Rome, Italy. I had never been to Rome, but I imagined decadence, dark brown oil paintings, and emperors in sandals. I saw a coloring book I once got for Christmas that had pictures of ancient Rome.

#2 I was a fellow at the American Academy in Rome, and was given a studio, the keys to this apartment, and $1,300 a month to live on the Janiculum Hill. I was a literature fellow, and was required to write only.

#3 We arrive in Rome at midnight. We have no money, no food, and no place to sleep. We are exhausted and disoriented. We follow Laura, a neighbor who helps us find our way to a store that sells ground beef.

#4 In Italy, I hunt for anything recognizable and find labels illustrated with rabbits, sheep, and ponies. I help the boys find an ATM, and buy disposable diapers.
