If you could go back in time to any place in the world for only three hours, where would you choose?
Do you remember the one who got away and wonder where that person is now?
Do you reminisce about the street you grew up on and the friends you had, and do those memories still haunt you?
Are there places you remember?
In this collection of short stories, Michael Di Leo dives deep into those questions, taking
us into memory and longing and how those inform the here and now. From a suburban
street on Long Island, where everyday life doesn’t always match up with memories its
inhabitants carry through their lives, to a fantastic time-traveling service that gives its
clients what they crave—and what they didn’t—There Are Places I Remember illuminates both the irresistible pull of nostalgia and the treacherous footing of the present. It’s a love letter to time and place—a Generation X pleasure bomb—and a
testament that the past has never passed. It’s always there for us, in our imperfect memories.
