- Abstract
(lang="eng")
- While Home Is An Island appears to be a fictionalized sketch of Lewis’s formative years on Flores in the early 1900s, his accounts are nearly identical to my experiences in New Bedford during the 1950s and 60s. But he lived on a tiny remote island in the middle of an ocean, and I lived in a city of 100,000, in an area populated by a few million. Our experiences only differ materially in that I wore shoes, and it wasn’t necessary for me to emigrate to America.
- Abstract
(lang="por")
- Embora Home Is An Island pareça ser um esboço ficcional dos anos de formação de Lewis em Flores no início dos anos 1900, seus relatos são quase idênticos às minhas experiências em New Bedford durante os anos 1950 e 1960. Mas ele morava em uma pequena ilha remota no meio do oceano, e eu morava em uma cidade de 100.000 habitantes, em uma área habitada por alguns milhões. Nossas experiências diferem apenas materialmente porque eu usava sapatos e não era necessário para eu emigrar para a América.
