Philip Roth and the roads of North Jersey. Jaimee's hometown gets a shout-out. My hometown of Randolph is as usual ignored, but we get the last Philip-Roth-related laugh:
Mt. Freedom's previous incarnation as a Jewish resort community is mentioned in one of his novels (
Goodbye, Columbus, I think, or else
American Pastoral). (via
The Elegant Variation)
