"They have chickens and a goat and a water-gray barn that my professor-uncle has filled with things like oil paintings in immense gilt frames, junked toys, battered pots, ancient clothes, unidentifiable tools and broken farming implements, Persian rugs, sacks of grain, silver coins and jewelry, rusted watering cans, abandoned birds' nests, and so on. It is a place stuffed with all the history in the world, the stories of ten thousand strangers, all living together here with all their separate textures and dusts and smells, along with the musty grain of the hayloft. I am obsessed with the barn and plan to live there someday." Diana Abu-Jaber, _The Language of Baklava_, p.12.
