I am a high school English teacher in NYC and during the summer of 2008, I took an extensive cross country road trip to visit literary sites. Now, in the summer of 2013, I will explore Vietnam and study the effects of the Vietnam War from both an American and Vietnamese perspective. I will use this exploration to create an interdisciplinary unit on the Vietnam War, using Tim O'Brien's wonderful work "The Things They Carried." Thanks for visiting.

The House of the Seven Gables, Salem, MA
Wow, Nathaniel hawthorne had a pretty sweet life. I would NOT mind chilling out at the House of the Seven Gables and writing some prose and looking out at the water. Hawthorne was entertained here for many years of his life, since his family relatives owned the house, and he also lived here for some years. He titled his 1851 novel The House of the Seven Gables after this home.
