...provisional administration, not a provisional coalition, of the various social, political and religious forces in South Vietnam--regardless of their pasts but who now favor peace and national concord--would displace the Thieu regime. Binh did not rule out Thieu's participation in the provisional administration; a person who does not favor "peace, independence and neutrality" may participate, but the provisional administration will favor those goals...
Today there are 22 AMP centers, with more to come, and many resonant place names are vanishing from American envelopes.

Zindel says rightly that despite the psychologically crippled characters and lacerating tensions in Marigolds, it is an affirmation of life-the experimenting schoolgirl endures literally and symbolically, despite the emotional violence around her. Like her, Zindel has transcended his experience. Thoreau eventually went as far as Minnesota. For Zindel, Manhattan may be far enough; it is the inner distance that counts...
