Entry: Global Hybrids Go Home Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/global_hybrids_go_home#25705 Post contents: On second thought, it seems that the real main character, the real "visitor", is Walter, who (at least partly) transcends his faux-globalization with the help of drumning lessons and some authentic Levantine love. At the end he's no longer a visitor, or at least not as much as he was. Not a "visitor in his own land", but an authentic member of the "global community". So it's a happy Hollywood ending, really. Long live globalization. Anyway, see ya later, I'm off to the <i>mangal</i> for Independence Day. Sent at: 2008 07 06
