13 Ways of Looking at Philadelphia
One day in the fall semester of 2007, an undergraduate English class in literary travel writing made a pilgrimage, together, to Philadelphia. One trip, thirteen completely different journeys. With the authors' permission, they all reappear here. Discover the dark truth about Philly sports fans; experience the "creepies" at Eastern State Penitentiary; uncover the relationship between the Liberty Bell and horses' rear ends; hear what a talking $100 bill has to say; and learn how saying goodbye to Philadelphia can mean letting go of love. As one of the writers put it, "These are the moments I would have missed, if I had not opened myself up to enjoy this day." Warning: essays contain mature themes and language.
