Been loving this book by Lucia Berlin. A great discover for me. The connection with Mexico. The simplicity in her writing so hard to achive. Amazing! I heard a while back Almodovar was about to make this into a movie. I could see why.

Latest read, Angel's Laundromat (1981) by Lucia Berlin, from A Manual for Cleaning Women. The writer recalls her casual friendship with an old Apache man at a New Mexican laundromat, their uncommon honesty and humor toward each other.
Berlin showed an awareness for the significance of 'the small things'-- I surmise it is these people who most often enjoy life.
