...after my 18th birthday, I had decided to visit the Oranges, friends of my family, who had moved to Austin. A week before the crash, I climbed off the bus, dazed and dirty from a three-day ride from Boston. The place looked equally like Dallas and Texarkana to an outsider-wide, flat roads and a dingy Trailways station; except the four cheery Oranges.

For instance, there's the character called Will Street: brawny, good hearted, always ready with a joke. Law school teaches him to see very country meadow as a shopping mail and each grassy hillside as a self-sufficient condominium community.
