Fantastic. Anyone who comes to HN more for the comments than the articles -- read this one.

Thanks for the pointer! I was shocked at the quality of the article. Also, having recently read a great adaptation of "The Odyssey", I feel like I was primed for the author's conclusion. As an academic expat, myself, without any street-writing cred, the idea of an oral history exposition really resonated with me.
