In the Smokies

They've grown to love Thomas Wolfe here, although it seems they were a little touchy about it at first.

I look down from room 321 on the Thomas Wolfe Memorial in Asheville. Not knowing anything other than that I should probably read one of his books, I Google him. It turns out his memoir-like novel "Look Homeward, Angel" was too frank and graphic for the locals in 1929, so the public library here originally banned it for seven years.
