...lives off the main highway, a two-lane, black-top affair. A rutty dirt road leads to his gate and a sign warning off all trespassers not on foot. From a parked green Capri, the two flat-landers later seen by the source stared at us in a not altogether pleasant manner, and they were big and ugly and smelt sort of funny so I gave the biggest and ugliest of them--a bulging, pale fish-eyed creature with sweated-back hair and a dim-witted, monotone voice--a warm beer. He smiled...
...blue sedan is parked on the inside shoulder of the eastbound lane of the Ohio turnpike. The driver makes lusty love to a red-shirted girl lying on a blanket on the median strip. Lush-Ohio grass, bent about a subtle flex of asphalt, spinning through the onrush of high-revving machines, hollowed to catch the sky's seed, pulls through their pressing embrace. Coupled in time and stasis, the lovers arch to the Indianapolis sounds of the cars, rising and fading in perpetually lost motions...
...joined Ms. Hemingway in a Manhattan restaurant; they were halfway through lunch (cold lobster, white wine) before they could really understand her lickety-split, California-hip patois, but the interview turned out "okeydoke artichoke," as Margaux would say.

Take the personification of the ideal, Nicky Lane, 23, a dégagée Englishwoman with fire-engine red hair, matte-white face and enormous carnelian eyes. "She looks like an apricot," says her whimsical husband Kenneth Jay Lane, the costume-jewelry designer. Nicky is what Cole Porter liked to call "rich-rich"; she inherited a pile from...
...view of California as it sped by backwards, but the State Troopers didn't agree. We were on the road for only ten minutes when they pulled up about two feet in back of the truck, cruising at a swift 60, and then they cut out into the other lane, passed us like a salmon might take a small waterfall and told our drivers to pull over. We all got our I.D.s checked and then we were told the tailgate had to be closed, so California went by in blackness. We made up for it with a couple of joints...
