No Place like home (2001)
"Home is the structure , the center , the vessel of identity , it is both the point of origin and the destination of the road , and as such most traditional narratives involve flight and return , fragmentation and reconciliation .. This double bind leaves only one exit to glory : temporal death , whereby one enters the American metaphysical kingdom like James Dean , by dying and becoming an absense that is present as an afterimage in the dreams of the surviving : to be an American myth . To pass this exit is to meet either failure or farce. "
