...civilization, the discount store and the parking meter. Yet Müller never stoops to cheap nostalgia or self-righteous despair. Each page is keyed to a child's comprehension; each of the meticulous landscapes shows compassion as well as irony in the face of the familiar.

One example is a birthday party for The Citizens for Political Action featuring Eugene McCarthy, I.F. Stone, Reps. Michael Harrington (D-Mass.) and Robert Drinan (D.-Mass.), held here in Boston just last week. (You missed it.)
