Swells of Ancient Egypt and Patagonian Boom Era Echoes
A collage of excerpts contrasts ancient Egyptian elite life with a boomer era vision of Santa Cruz California. It notes Egyptian court roles and offerings, then shifts to travelogue on Santa Cruz’s planned city and wool trade, finishing with a comic rural anecdote about a kitchen kettle misadventure and soda joke. The pieces reflect dated style and varied subjects.
