You are what you read discussion

Hi, Amy. Sorry I haven't been in touch lately.

I just wondered if anyone has read anything that seems like a really good view on America? Or on any particular country? I know a friend said that about Tobias Wolf's books once, but I haven't read any of them. (He said they seemed to really speak about America, that is.)

I will try to see if I come up with anything in this category and list it (or them) here too.
