Starting From Paterson by Garret Keizer
from EastOver Press
In Starting From Paterson, Garret Keizer, called “the finest essayist writing today” by Jeff Sharlet, collects essays on an adult’s supermarket perplexity, a child’s religious formation, the search for the Northwest Passage, meeting Colonel Sanders and Paul Farmer, his love for his father-in-law, and the labor struggles that led to an eight-hour day, all connected to the author’s roots in Paterson, NJ, and the woman he came to love there.
