I wonder if Tillman read Jean-Paul Sartre's essay entitled "American Cities." Here's an excerpt: "I have spent Sundays in the American provinces that were more depressing than Sundays anywhere else; I have seen those suburban 'colonial style' inns where, at two dollars a head, middle-class families go to eat shrimp cocktails and turkey with cranberry sauce in silence while listening to the electric organ. One must not forget the heavy boredom that weighs over America." Of course, as most Americans know who've spent any time abroad, the USA is an incredibly boring place.
