Imagine all of L.A. filled with windup men wandering empty-headed and waiting for orders and directions and purpose. That’s L.A. in a nutshell. A city of driven creatures, but no one is a hundred percent sure what they’re driven toward. Wealth. Fame. Power. Love. Revenge.
Kill City Blues: A Sandman Slim Novel
Other than a very brief visit during a family trip to California I have never spent much time in L.A., but I have a vision of what L.A. is. It is like the idea of the place called L.A. is something that exists for me from, built from all of the books and movies and shows I have watched my whole life. So many stories are set in L.A. or around L.A. that it almost exists as a fictional place unto itself. It is sort both a place that is real and it some how exists as a fictional reference point.
This idea of real place that has a fictional identity separate from its real one almost feels like it has the beginning of a story in there somewhere.
