Abstract

Excerpt from essay by Dick Goody: “Nostalgia and outrage” is a state of mind. On the one hand, we long to bask in the memories of a gilded childhood. On the other, we see ourselves on a threshold, walking toward an unknowable, often alarming future. But, really, in all of this, how far do we ever stray from the path of our childhood? As Aristotle said: “Give me the child until he is seven and I will show you the foundation of the man.”
