...European-ness draws him, like generations of other Old World observers, to all that is grotesque and egregious in the U.S. In his 25,000-km tour Lévy makes sure to visit a gun show in Fort Worth, a "partner-swapping club" in San Francisco, the gigantic Mall of America near Minneapolis, the Kennedy assassination site in Dallas, a Nevada brothel and two evangelical megachurches. He even gets into Guantánamo, which - having by now seen several U.S. prisons, as did De Tocqueville - he finds representative of America's vindictive attitude toward incarceration.

Lady Capulet (Elizabeth Hess) is now an over-sexed, half-crazed shrieking harpy, Friar Laurence (Thomas Derrah) is physically menacing and the prince (John Campion) has an inexplicable (and annoying) stutter. As for Mercutio—well...
...Barlow, the psychologist who taught Hayes at Brown in the '70s. Hayes is famous at Nevada-Reno for passing students in the hall without so much as a nod. But it's worse than they think. According to Hayes' wife Jacqueline Pistorello, in December the couple went to the mall to buy Christmas gifts. They split up so they could shop for each other, but at one point Hayes literally bumped into his wife. He didn't notice her, even though she was cradling their newborn in her arms.
