Book Review
WHAT WE CALL HOME
1987
Overview
Ms. [Nancy Potter] takes her central theme from one of the great dilemmas of our time - the disappearance of community. In ''Legacies,'' families have drifted apart, neighborhoods scarcely exist. People live in dou-ble-wide trailers and communicate by perfunctory phone calls. In ''A Thin Place,'' a woman lives alone in a trailer in a Western suburb where it is ''illegal to build a house'' and where cocky little girls grow up wanting to be cocktail waitresses.
